Stephen, thanks for the help.
Here's the original formula.
=IF(G13F13,"OVERPAID","PAID")
I'm looking for the formula to only return a value in
cell I13 if there is a value in G13.

Hello,
I have a spread sheet which tracks whether an item has been paid or
not.
It
also looks at the amount claimed and compares this to the amount paid
and
returns either "PAID", "UNDERPAID" or "OVERPAID". The problem is, if
the
amount paid cell is blank the status defaults to "PAID". Any ideas?

It's easier if you post your formula. But try this (for amount paid in
cell
A1):
=IF(A1="","",put_your_formula_here)
