absolute_column_width = '6,10,11,11,25,10,25,6,6,6,30,25,11,11,11,11');

Title 'Current Quarter Assets vs. Previous Quarter';

Proc print data=Admin.Canicmerged noobs label split='*';

The problem was that the field was formatted as NEGPAREN8.2 in the table.

As soon as I changed it to 8.2 and recreated the table - it worked.

Thanks all!

Sometimes style overrides don't work and you have to create new style elements.

proc template;                                               
  
define style styles.my_journal;                          
     
parent=styles.journal;                                 
     
style angle_header from header / tagattr = 'rotate:45';
     
style red_data from data    / tagattr='format:0.00;[Red]\(0.00\)';
     
end;                                                   
  
run;             

data test;
   do x = -1 ,1,-2,1,-100000;
     
output;
     
end;
  
run;
ods tagsets.excelxp file='~/red.xml' style=my_journal;
proc report nowd list;
  
columns x;
   define x / display style(column)=red_data style(header)=angle_header 'Traffic Light';
  
run;
ods tagsets.excelxp close;

Same result.  Is the number supposed to be stored by excel as text? Maybe I should change the format in the table.
