One way:
A3: =IF(COUNT(A1:A2)=2,A1+A2,"") another: A3: =SUM(A1:A2) since SUM ignores text. In article .com, "Ryan H." wrote: Hi, Cell A1 contains the number 5 Cell A2 contains "" Cell A3 contains =A1+A2 A3 returns #VALUE! How can I make it return 5? Thanks |

#value! when cell is blank
Thank you guys for your responses, but there is a problem.
Cell A1 contains the number 5 Cell A2 contains ="" Cell A3 contains =SUM(A1,-A2) A3 still returns #VALUE! I think its because you can't have a negative zero "JE McGimpsey" wrote in message ...
