trying to add together is blank. When one of the cells is blank it is not returning an answer for me, any way around this? thanks, JAse |

Sounds like there may be, say, " " in the cell. So, if (cell1="
",cell2,if(cell2="",cell1,cell1+cell2)) "Jase" wrote: I am trying to add 2 cells together. Sometimes 1 of the 2 cell sthat I am trying to add together is blank. When one of the cells is blank it is not returning an answer for me, any way around this? thanks, JAse |

Use SUM, it will ignore text
Eg in C1: =SUM(A1:B1) [instead of in C1: =A1+B1] -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:18,300 Files:361 Subscribers:58 xdemechanik --- "Jase" wrote: I am trying to add 2 cells together.
