Hi,

In G4 i have the results of a formula which can be less than one.
In H4 there are whole numbers or a 0.

If the sum of G4-H4 is less than 1 then nothing.
If the sum of G4-H4 is 1 or more then the sum of G4-H4.

'=IF(SUM(G4-H4<=1),"",SUM(G4-H4))

If G4 has less than 1 or a fraction of 1 then i get the dreaded

#VALUE!
thingy.

This seems to work UNLESS one of the cells feeding the formula in G4

is
empty
then i also the #VALUE! thingy.
=IF(H4="","",IF(H4<G4,G4-H4,0))

Any direction?


Possibly either of the formulas in G4 or H4 is returning a text value
rather
than a numeric value.

Post those formulas, and any necessary precedents, and things may be
more
clear.

--ronHi Ron,

Thx for your reply.
G4 is '=IF(C3="","",(C3/D3/E3*F3)) can have a result less than 1. IE
(.0123)

H4 is user input of a whole number.
They are both formated as number with no decimals.

C,D,E,F have numbers and are formated as number.
