Force Excel To Treat A Cell As Blank
The zero length string ( "" or null as you call it), will give a cell the
appearance of being empty (blank), since there is nothing visible displayed
in the cell.
Can I guess that it could be that you're looking for something in relation
to perhaps charting (graphing).
If so, try replacing the "" with NA() which XL does not recognize as a value
to graph.
The cell will however, display the #N/A error.

I want to have the false part of an IF statement to return
a...null?...value
I guess. I want Excel to treat the cell as if it were blank.
Right now, this is the function I have:
=IF(M4<"",IF(ISERROR(YEAR(N4)),M4,N4),"")
It's the
,""
part that I want to replace with whatever will make the cell appear empty.
TIA.
