If you want to change all negative numbers to zero value from a cell in Excel, you can use a formula based on the MAX function. Like this:

=MAX(B1,0)

The MAX function will check if the value of the Cell B1 is less than 0, it indicated that this value is a negative value. And it will return 0. Otherwise, It will return the value of Cell B1.

You can also use another formula based on the IF function to change all negative numbers to zero in Excel. Just like this:

=IF(B1<0,0,B1)
