Try this:

Tools|options|transition tab|check transition navigation keys.

You'll see an apostrophe in the formula bar with that cell selected.

And turn that option off.

I like this way to clean up that type of "blank" cell.

select the range (or the whole sheet)
edit|replace
what: (leave blank)
with: $$$$$ (some unique value--not used!)
Replace all

Then reverse it:
edit|replace
what: $$$$$ (that same value)
with: (leave blank)
Replace all

I am using this formula in a range; +IF($B100,$C$3,""); if I copy paste
values this to say Data!A10:A40, why if I use counta(A10:A40), and only say
A10:A12 actual has data that I can see the answer of the count formula is
still 41.
I want the formula to leave the cell blank if false.

Thank you
