 * Hi there. I have an equation which, before a preliminary number is set, results
   in a display of -4. Is it possible to set a base level of 0, so it can’t drop
   below this?

 * Hi,
 * Assuming your equation is: `fieldname1+fieldname2`, you can modify it as follows:
 * `MAX(fieldname1+fieldname2, 0)`
 * Best regards.
