Formula returning a blank cell if answer is zero
In Excel 2003, I have a worksheet that has formulae in a column. If the
result is zero, it displays a zero. I copied the column to another worksheet and on that worksheet, if the result is zero, the cell is blank. Where is the switch to have it show zero or show blank? I'm quite sure it exists...I just don't know where. Thanks, |

Formula returning a blank cell if answer is zero
Chris,
Remember, both worksheets have the same formula...neither saying anything about blanks, zeros, or anything...yet one shows 0, while the other shows blank. Isn't there a toggle someplace to set this option? Thanks, "Chris Premo" wrote: Rich wrote: In Excel 2003, I have a worksheet that has formulae in a column. If the result is zero, it displays a zero.

Tools|Options|view tab|uncheck Zero values.
Or maybe you have a numberformat that hides the zero by using the same font color as fill color. Try changing the numberformat to General. You could also use a custom number format to just hide the 0's. Changing the numberformat to General will fix this, too. Or maybe you have Format|conditional formatting set to hide the 0's???

ps. Unchecking Zero values will hide them. Checking it will show them.
