Negative zero, while being an odd notation, is still a number, as would be -1, -2, -3, etc. I would be frightened if a negative number didn't pass the IsNumeric function. You shouldn't get an error trying to calculate with -0 (with the obvious exception of trying to divide by it)? If you need only positive values you could use abs().
