    Thanks. I can replicate the problem here, too.

    =(B6-A6) results in the same number, but positive.

    Re: Formula anomaly

    So now that some of you have confirmed this peculiar anomaly where do we go from here? Is it time to tell Microsoft "sorry guys there's a fault in Excel. It's integrity is fatally undermined."?

    Yep - looks like it! What do you think we should do? I mean, there is nothing wrong per se with the formulae you are using, so use one that currently gives the answers you need.
