Default Accounting Format

Yes that worked. I knew it was something like that, but just couldn't get
the correct combination. Thanks.

I may take you up on your offer sometime. I believe is using the experts.
I'm a certified project management professional (PMP) and couldn't do without
you pros.

Thanks,

Michele

P.S. - How do you become an MVP?

I should have also mentioned that the paragraph formatting in the cell needs
to be left aligned.

Hi,

I've placed a formula in a cell, but the dollar sign shows directly to the
left of the number. I choose the option $#,##0.00;($#,##0.00).

Is there a way to use the Excel type accounting format where there are
spaces between the dollar sign and the numbers so the dollar signs line up
evenly against the left side of the cell?

Thanks,

Michele
