>>also the Number options on Regional Settings, Control Panel. The latter

does let me select negative figures in brackets

Curiously enough you have to make this change on the currency tab in Control
Panel.  After doing so the option to have negatives in parens will appear in
Format, Cells, Number, Number, Negative numbers list box.  You can always
use a custom number format to get there too but I know it is convenient to
pick this format from a list.
