Well, your question may not be the answer you want, really. If you just
want to change a number from a negative to a positive(and vice versa), you
can multiply your number by -1.
I suspect, however, that what you really want is a way to return the
absolute value of your variable. To do
use abs($value) to absolute value
Wags ;)
