Returning "blank" when first cell is blank
I'm setting up a second worksheet where in column A, I just want the
appropriate information in column A on the previous worksheet to populate. (Information that is being entered will be names of individuals.) I am currently using the following formula: ='Performance Analysis'!A5 However, I would like to add that if the cell is blank, no information is entered on the 2nd worksheet. How do I add that additional stipulation? Any information is appreciated. |

Returning "blank" when first cell is blank
Are you sure you meant that, Dave?
I wonder whether instead of =if('Performance Analysis'!A5,"",'Performance Analysis'!A5) you might have intended =if('Performance Analysis'!A5="","",'Performance Analysis'!A5) ? -- David Biddulph Dave Peterson wrote: =if('Performance Analysis'!A5,"",'Performance Analysis'!A5) lisab wrote: I'm setting up a second worksheet where in column A, I just want the appropriate information in column A on the previous worksheet to populate.

Info only
You don't need the =TRUE =if(isblank('Performance Analysis'!A5),"",'Performance Analysis'!A5) Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 28 Oct 2009 11:23:01 -0700, cm wrote: try this: =if(isblank('Performance Analysis'!A5)=TRUE,"",'Performance Analysis'!A5) |
