 "Accounting" Number Format

I would like my numbers to appear in the following format
(which is listed in Excel as "Accounting"):

$   (35,000.00)
$23,563,389.00
$        10.77

Any ideas how I would do that? I tried copying and pasting
the actual format of Excel into the "Format" Property (by
selecting "Accounting", and then clicking "Custom" to view
the format, but no luck.

Thanks in advance,

Sean

Have you tried using the Currency in the format property of the table or
query?

For more ideas check help on the format property -

Please minimize your cross-posting to a couple of groups max. Settle on one
or two groups that seem likely to offer you the best response and leave it
at that. Thanks.
