View 2 Replies View RelatedSum The First 12 Columns After The First Positive Number
Jun 1, 2009I need a formula that will look at a row (say row 1) starting in column F. When the first positive value appears in the row, the formula will then sum that value and the next 11 columns in the same row. So for example, starting in row 1 column F - here is an example list of values
0 0 0 0 3 4 3 2 0 4 8 7 9 0 9 0 6 4 2 2 0 8 7
The total would be 49 (start summing at the first 3 (which would be column J)and finish with the 0 (which would be column U))
Lets assume the formula is in column AZ, row 1 and I then need to drag it down

I thought I could use another IF function to multiply the formulas contents by -1 if it were <0, but I keep getting a #VALUE error in my cells. Is there a way I can have multiple conditions?

Dec 6, 2007I am wanting to finish a worksheet for my boss. What I have done so far is taken the " forecast" of vehicles shown and used a formula of subtract from "actual" vehicles sold to get "how many we have left to go". what he wants to do is have the "to go" number change from red when a negative to green when it reaches a positive. example:
forecast = 30
actual = 27
to go = -3
that "to go" needs to be without a negative sign but in RED to negate a negative. Is that possible with a formula??

How To Change Positive Into Negative Number Inside Cell Formula
Feb 7, 2014How do I change a Positive number into a Negative number inside a cell formula?
I have a figure in Cell AE 101 which has the positive number 141
I have another cell W1 which has the positive number of 437
I want to create a formula in cell X1 that takes the number in cell AE 101 of 141 and convert the number inside the formula of 141 into a negative number of -141 and then subtracts that number from Cell W1 of 437 leaving an equation inside the formula to read. 437-141 = 296
Since the number in Cell W1 changes all the time and the number in AE101 Changes all the time the new formulated number in X1 will change all the time too as the cells get updated.
