We created a ARM report for our Inc Statement.  We have some value that are negative that we would like to show with brackets instead of a minus sign.  Most of the rows are set to show the value and they have brackets but we have a few rows that we have $ signs that show up with a minus sign.  We want minus signs 

This is the formatting formula we’ve used

I tried updating with the following

 =’$###,###,###.00’; ‘($###,###,###.00)”

but I get this error

Am I using the wrong format formula?

Sorry… We want brackets. :-)

Hello, in your formula, I see a combination of single and double quotes. I think all quotes should be single  in the example. Could the quotes be causing the error?

Hi @jameswong ,

  • Could you please try to change Format under Appearance section in Properties tab as below.
'$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00)'

Hope, it helps!

Thanks for the replies.  We got it to work.  Laura, I think that was a typo on my part.  Sweta, this is what we ultimately came up with.
