    Accounting zero using custom format option

    As of right now I created a custom format for my 1000 to show up as 1k and my 1,000,000 to show up as 1.0m

    Now the issue: How do I create a template to where my 0 shows up as (-) instead of (k)

    Here is the formula

    [<=-1000000]"-"$*(#.0,,"M");[<=0]$* (#,"K");(#,##0.0)

    All help is greatly appreciated!

    hmmmm dont know why your doing negative 1 mill and why it would work

    anyways here's my attempt

    anything under 1000 will always so -
    ie 3 shows as (-)
    anything negative will also show as -(-)
    on more research, you can only have 3 conditions.

    to get around this

    zero & negative is now red (-)
    0-1000 = 0.0K

    I need the negatives to still show as a negative number not a -(-). But thanks for your attempt!
