Adding "[ ]" to a number

Is there a way to add brackets, [ ], to a number in excel? This is just for
asthetic purposes (to show that a number is in draft form), not to designate
a negative number. Thank you!

try this,

go to format-->cell--> custom format--> type "["0"]"

now when you type a number it will add [] around it
