Hi, Dave:

I used same as you instructed but some how it is not putting out the true
result, Here is what I have entered .=IF(AX12=" ",BA12,0) and now in cell
AX if There is any value or not it just keep giving me only zero. what I
want is zero only the time if there is a date in cell "AX12"

Try this =IF(AX12="",BA12,0) instead of =IF(AX12=" ",BA12,0)

Well, the way you have the formula written you have a space between the two
quotation marks, so that doesn't test for an empty cell but rather a cell
with a space typed in it (there is a difference between a cell with nothing
in it and a cell with a space in it.)

Try =IF(NOT(ISBLANK(AX12)),"",0) (IF AX12 is not blank, THEN return 0, ELSE
return nothing.)
