Linking cell to different workbook
Just had a quick question... I have several different worksheets and books
linked to one master workbook. However, if the contents of the cell in the original workbook is blank, it displays a '0' on the master workbook until a value is entered. Is it possible to get the master workbook to appear blank as well until a value is entered and it is updated? Thank you for any help! |

Linking cell to different workbook
2 work arounds...
1 - Change the formula that you have pointing to the target workbook to an if formula. If the value in the target book is blank ("") then make the value in the master blank, else return the value from the target book. 2 - Tools - Options - View tab - uncheck Zero Values -- HTH...
