Default Keep formulas in an Excel template when I delete data

You may well get errors showing up if you delete all the data, for
example if you have =a1/b1 you will get #DIV/0. You will need to amend
all you formulae to take account of the data cells being empty, eg:

=IF(b1="",0,a1/b1)

Hope this helps.

Hi and thanks for the answer,

One final question to the subject: So then I can not set all the cells (with
formulas) to 0 or blank but with a formula "behind" the blank?

It selects all the cells that do not contain formulae and deletes the values
held in them.
All cells containing formulae will remain untouched.

Hi,


this does not make them remain, do I need to do anything else, choose
Formulas etc?

How do I keep the formulas in an Excel template when I delete actual
data
in
the rows and columns?


For example, if i have a table containing a lot of formulas, and I
would
like to make the document "clean" without the data, for someone else to
use
but keep the formulas for that person to use, how do I do that?
