PFMaBiSmAd Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Sorry, cannot help you without knowing all the conditions and context of what you are doing. You must have some kind of logic to test the value and produce/return the zero value for negative numbers. Even using a built-in or user written function would require the use of a statement. Now, if you will care to fully explain what it is you are trying to do and in what context, I'm sure someone can probably help you.
