First of all, thank you to the person who answered my previous Excel question! It was exactly what I needed.

One section of my spreadsheet is % increase/decrease in sales. The equation is:

+(J12-D12)/D12

J12 is sales for June '07
D12 is sales for June '06

#1 When there is a decrease, I change the negative figure to red. I've figured out how to do that, but not in addition to the equation.

#2 Sometimes, last year's sales were zero and the increase/decrease shows up as the error "DIV/0!". I change those to "n/a"...So I'd like to be able to make that automatic also.

So, I have the original equation. I want to have the font automatically change to red when negative. And I want "DIV/0!" to automatically show up as "n/a"....Is this possible?!

My husband and I are expecting our first baby in January 2008. We are not sure of the sex yet, but will be finding out soon. We have been looking at lots and lots of names, and it seems so overwhelming!!! There are so many! We would like some ideas from you people. Any male or female names are welcome. If you want to add middle name ideas that would be welcome too!
Most unique name gets the points!

Sometimes I just get fed up at the behavior of other teens...and it's weird because I'm one too. Girls at my high school are total sluts and wear SO much makeup, and I couldn't walk anywhere in school without hearing the STUPID F word or some other cuss word. I've NEVER felt the urge to swear, do drugs, dress like a slut, be obnoxious, and I've never even had a bf. Sooo many people in school have had sex, have crazy keg parties on the weekends, think they're SO freakin cool cuz they have their license (and drive like 60 mph in the parking lot and almost RUN ME OVER)....why is this the norm????? I'm SO GLAD I've graduated from that freaking zoo. it's probably not just my school, it probably applies to most teens in America too. sorry I'm just ranting

Ok here's the problem. There's a sale going on at one of my favorite store. I recieved a 20% off coupon. I found something I wanted that costs around $120 dollars. Sales tax here in California is 7.750%. Don't know if I have enough money but, before I go out and purchase the stuff, I need to know step by step on how to find the grand total (after tax and after the 20% off)? Please help as the sale and coupon is going to expire in a few day. Please make steps as simple as possible as I'm really stupid when it comes to math. Thanks alot in advance.

I know most of the cats in my community, and I've never seen this one before. It came to our door a few days ago and invited itself in, just looked around. My grandma wouldn't have it stay overnight, but it's come back several times. It's a beautiful cat, big but very skinny with matted fur. No identification. It doesn't seem to be a stray because it's very friendly, but we're not sure what to do because it seems sick. It has trouble eating, and prefers to be fed. We don't have a cat, or cat food, so we've been giving it small chunks of meat. It has been drinking a lot of water, working its mouth and licking it, and twitching its tail irritatedly. It seems to have trouble laying down, and sort of sidesteps before flopping over. It doesn't mind being picked up but did kind of moan. Do you think it might be something serious? If so, what should we do?

I can't seem to get into a relationship because I have a tendency to sabatoge them before it becomes one. I know I'm afraid of being hurt.

Could it also be that I am doing this because I'm trying to be with the wrong man instead of the man that God will send to me. I am beginning to wonder if God hasn't already done so.

I decided not to date anymore because I don't want to hurt anyone or myself anymore. I also get into a panicked state when I am dating. I feel much more relaxed when I'm not dating. I don't have to worry if the guy is a dog.

What do you think?

I have no cartilage between my femur and patella (actually one sixteenth of an inch is all). Both knees are affected. I need to do aerobic exercises, but the only thing I've been able to do is swim, and I can't do it year round because there are no indoor pools here. I never get to a good level of fitness because it takes me all summer to work up to a good aerobic level--if I do it too quickly, my shoulders go. I have been told that a Lifecycle Recumbent bicycle would work for me, but others have told me no bicycle at all. What do I do? Help!

The computer keeps telling me that it finds no OS on any disk even when I start it up with the OS disk in the drive.

I have tried it with dos boot disk and windows boot disk but keep getting the same message. I got into the bios and the C drive is the third in line to start.
