Hi,
Could anyone help me create the negative number format in the brackets?
Example: (123,456)
Thanks for your help!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Julia_Mav
Here are the steps to do this:
Select the field or column that you want to format.
Go to the Modeling tab in the ribbon, and select Format.
In the Format pane, select Custom.
In the Custom format box, enter the format code that you want to use. To display negative numbers in brackets, use the format code "0,0.00;(0,0.00)".
Press Enter to apply the format.
The selected field will now display negative numbers in brackets.
