Blank cell instead of zero
 

I want to pull info from my master over to other sheets, if nothing is
in the cell I want it to return a blank cell instead of zero so this is
the formula I am using. The only problem is my formulas start row 12,
rows 15-28 either won't pull info over or if blank it puts in a zero.
29-560 works fine then in row 561-596 nothing, zeros, or #NA.

=IF(LEN(VLOOKUP($A12,'FD RUN LIST -
MASTER'!$A$12:$N$596,$B$17))=0,"",(VLOOKUP($A12,'F D RUN LIST -
MASTER'!$A$12:$N$596,$B$17,FALSE)))

Is there another formula I should use so I get a blank instead of zero?

I think your formula is as good as any, but I use this variation:

=if(vlookup(...)="","",vlookup(...))

or
=if(iserror(vlookup(...)),"missing",if(vlookup(... )="","",vlookup(...))))

Blank cell instead of zero
 

But why is it not reading some cells?

Blank cell instead of zero
 

I have tried the suggestions and in some cells I am still getting
zeros.

Maybe the matched cell really contains a 0?

What formula did you use?
