how to not display a certain result
 
I would like to not see any formula results that come up as 0:00, is this
possible for the whole spreadsheet?

use a custom number format like this
hh:mm;;

the semicolons tell excel to make the cell blank if the value is negative or
zero. custom number formats work like this...

+numbers;-numbers;zero;text

each section can be formatted differently.

Try Tools - Options - View - Zero values (unchecked).

A lot depends on what your cell values are. Formatting a cell as time, any integer value will show
as 00:00, despite not being truly zero, so the suggested fixes -may- not work (though they probably
will).

Bernie,

I had my doubts too, but the Zero Values option seems to work with a time-formatted cell.

If by chance the OP has a midnight value including the date part, and it's formatted for
time only, then it won't work. We'll see.
