Default keep value if formula has no data

What type of data is in ColumnA & H?

Do you import into both columns?

And if you do, I don't understand exactly what data you're trying to retain.

Doesn't the newly imported data overwrite the "old" data?

Oh.. Like in one cell:

=SUMIF(ImportData!A:A, IDEA!A1412, ImportData!H:H)

I have a whole bunch of these set up in my sheet. I import the data once

a
day for our daily sales. It automatically fills in the cells with my

import.
But then some of that data expires, so I don't report on it any more. It

is
no big thing to have to copy and paste special to values... it would be

nice
if it could do the formula, but if the data wasn't there, just keep the

last
value it had set. Does that make sense?

Copy some of the formulas that are returning 0 in your sheet and paste

in a message (post) in this thread, just like you did when you told me

you
didn't understand.

That way, folks here can see exactly what your formulas are doing, and

can
suggest various solutions to your problem.

I have a worksheet that automatically updates everyday and works

some
calculations for me. How can I get the formula sheet to keep the

value
from
the previous day if there is no data today. Because now it is

filling
in
all
my cells with zeros. Thanks
