Default Simple cell reference not blank

Whenever I do a simple cell reference, e.g.

=A1

if A1 is blank the resultant cell shows a zero. I'm getting tired of

=IF(A1="","",A1)

Without changing the cell format is there a setting or different formula
syntax to make the resultant cell equal the source cell literally?

TIA
Charlie
