Clear Blank Cells
Saved from a previous post:
If you want to see what's left in that cell after you convert ="" to values,
try:
Tools|Options|Transition Tab|Toggle Transition Navigation keys on.
Then select one of those cells and look at the formula bar. You'll see an
apostrophe. (Don't forget to toggle the setting to off.)
When I want to clean up this detritus, I do this:
Select the range (ctrl-a a few times to select all the cells)
Edit|Replace
what: (leave blank)
with: $$$$$
replace all
Immediately followed by:
Edit|Replace
what: $$$$$
with: (leave blank)
replace all

In B1 I have =if(A1="this","that","") and continuing down b:b
i then copy b:b and paste special (value) into c:c
I have a sumproduct equation that runs off c:c. the problem is that
apparently the blank cells ("") arent really blank. I get a #VALUE error.
How can I find all the blank (''") cells and clearcontents?
Thanks in advance
