=IF(Sheet2!C40-C81=(HERE IS PROBLEM...ANYTHING),C39,(0 or blank))

I'm guessing that "ANYTHING" means any number greater than 0. I'm also
assuming that you're dealing with only positive numbers? Try this:

=IF(Sheet2!C40-C81,C39,"")

Or:

=IF(Sheet2!C40-C81,C39,0)

I have a spreadsheet that I am trying to seperate out into multiple ones.
My
problem is, I may or may not need to have an account number show depending
on
if there were transactions for it. Each account number could have 0 or
many
different transactions. Is there anyway to do this? I was thinking of an
if
statement something like...

=IF(Sheet2!C40-C81=(HERE IS PROBLEM...ANYTHING),C39,(0 or blank))

Please let me know if you have any suggestions!
