Default When I pastespecialvalue, I get a ' or ^ at the target cell. Why

I created a formular at source cell, such that it shows an empty cell if
there are no values in it: Eg. =IF(D14<"-",COUNTIF(Data!R:R,D14),"")

When I copy the source cell, and do a PasteSpecialValue onto a target
cell, I get a ' in the target cell, instead of it being blank cell.

When I use this on my colleague's excel file, after I do a
PasteSpecialValue, the target cell on his pc shows a blank cell and not the
'.

Why is there a difference and what formatting caused it? I need the target
cell to be blank instead of having a '.

Many thanks in advance.
