Default Formatting Settings.

I've recently setup Office 2003 on my new system and am
trying to get the formatting that I had on my old system
onto my new one. My difficulty lies with setting default
settings for formating ($ % ,). How do I set them so
that when I select (,) a negative number is displayed as
(500.00) and not -500.00? I know how to format it
manually each time but I don't know how to set it up as a
default. Any suggestions?

There's a windows setting you can change:

The way I'd get to in Win98 is:

Windows Start button|settings|control panel|Regional Settings
Currency Tab|Negative Number Format
