Default If 0 then blank

Why SUM(D3-117)*1 ?
Why not just D3-117 ?
As far as I can see, the SUM() does nothing, and the *1 does nothing.

Try in E3
=IF(D3=0,0,SUM(D3-117)*1)

--------------------------

I have the above worksheet which I hope you will be able to understand
or cut and paste in XL.

In E3 [(=SUM(D3-117)*1] I get -117 because I can't work-out how to
show 0 if the contents of D3 [=SUM(C3-B3)] is 0

The same goes for another cell containing the following:
=IF(H3<TIME(3,21,0),(D3-117)*2,IF(H3TIME(3,21,0),
(D3-117)*1,IF(H3=TIME(3,21,0),0)))
I get -234

or if you wish, if the contents of B3 (starting km) is empty show 0
otherwise calculate the formula.

Hope you can help - I've been trying for a week now.
Thanks
