Formula:

=N24&TEXT($P$25,"+#.#,,;[Red]-#.#,")

This formula is part of a sentence. I need the format of P25 to be +##.# or -##.# regardless of the value. Therefore I need a dynamic formula to factor it if the value is over or under 1,000,000.

The current formula will work if my value is in the millions, but not if its in the thousands. I've exhausted my knowledge at this point. Hoping one of you can help.

Thanks!

Rhonda
 

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
I don't believe formatting controls like [red] work in the TEXT function.
