How do you hide the value of a cell until data is keyed into anoth
I have a very elaborate spreadsheet that is used by most of the people in my
office. I have three columns that contain formulas that calculate 30, 60 & 120 days from the date keyed into a specific column (ie: =bk2+30). Before a date is entered into [bk2] the date that is displayed is a standard date 1/30/00. I know that you can hide anything that has a zero in that column, but how do you hide that date until an actual date is keyed into [bk2]? Is that even possible? |

I truely have no idea what that means. I know how to create the formula, but
I need to know how to make that formula not appear on my spreadsheet until a value is entered into (what I'm calling) BK2.

This means that you put a formula in the other cell--but it evaluates to what
looks like an empty cell until you put something in BK2. akemeny wrote: I truely have no idea what that means.

Another way:
=if(count(bk2:bl2)<2,"",sum(bk2:bl2,120)) (Just to be a little different.) akemeny wrote: One more Question..... How would I word that if I wanted to do more than one column.

How do you hide the value of a cell until data is keyed into a
This post helped me TREMENDOUSLY. However, I have another variation:
so I'm using the formula =IF(B10="","",B10+14) and that works good. But to really be accurate with my dates, I need to calculate a date that's 10 business days in the future using the WORKDAY function, AND how to make that formula not appear on my spreadsheet until a value is entered. Can you help? "Bob I" wrote: If(OR(BK2="",BL2=""),"",BK2+BL2+120) akemeny wrote: One more Question..... How would I word that if I wanted to do more than one column.

=IF(B10="","",WORKDAY(B10,10)) Format the cell as Date. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "cashnic" wrote in message ... This post helped me TREMENDOUSLY.
