To "hide" 0s:
0;-0;;@ But I'm guessing you want to do it for some other value! -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Nastech" wrote in message ... hi, is there a way to make a specific text, in a column to "not" appear? have tried variations on use of 0 example: [=0]"";0 can not get to work for text, thanks |

yes, for text, e.g.: xx
have a column want to sort "off-lines" to end, instead of NOT situation ="", have to use characters.. (do not see a ready made custom format for text). "T.

="", have to use characters.. Sorry, I have no idea what that means. How about using conditional formatting to set the font color to be the same as the fill color? -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Nastech" wrote in message ... yes, for text, e.g.: xx have a column want to sort "off-lines" to end, instead of NOT situation ="", have to use characters..

hi, that would otherwise work, but am using all 3 cond. formats
really just need to hide a double x: xx use not so important, but have lines that are below value, they are formula'ed to turn off in such a case, e.g.: if levels less than 50, display nothing: =IF(quantity<50,"",else true sorts unwanted records to top, need them to bottom, replace "" with: "xx"; do not want to see the "xx".

Maybe this:
General;General;General;[White]General *ALL TEXT* entries will appear in a white font. Change White to be the same as the fill color. However, conditional formatting will take precedence. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Nastech" wrote in message ... hi, that would otherwise work, but am using all 3 cond. formats really just need to hide a double x: xx use not so important, but have lines that are below value, they are formula'ed to turn off in such a case, e.g.: if levels less than 50, display nothing: =IF(quantity<50,"",else true sorts unwanted records to top, need them to bottom, replace "" with: "xx"; do not want to see the "xx".
