Man, is that an old question! After 30 years we still can't do it easily.The only way I know of is to have two calc lines and use an edit word for minus numbers with the ")" at the last position, and let "(" be substituted as your floating currency sign.

Is there a way to create and edit description that would print (1,200.24)

Of course I would want 1,200.24 for positive.


Thanks
