Tools=Options=View, then unselect Zero Values - this will suppress zeros
on the whole sheet however.


a custom number format done on a cell by cell basis would be

positive,negative,zero,text

so use your positive and negative only

an example:
#,##0_);(#,##0);

include the last semi-colon.

I want to format these cells to display blank (not "0.0") if the value is
0.
