xl probs.
Looking for help in solving several problems with a spreadsheet I am
working on. I have spent a lot of time on the Microsoft site trying to find answers. 1.Would like to hide the 0 (which appears when a date is not known at a certain time)in a cell when calculating the No.of days i.e A1 date entered,B1 date exited, C1 =B1-A1. 2.Would also like to hide the word "FALSE" which is returned in a column of arguments if the argument does not exist. 3.The last one is a bit more complicated. Trading shares in foreign currencies - I want to calculate the Foreign Currency Rate Movement in Aust.$ if a share is not bought & sold the same day. i.e. A1=share price in foreign currency,B1=Entry Exchange Rate, C3 = Total cost in that currency (A1/B1) although this is also difficult if the exchange rate is greater than 1 as the formula then needs to be (A1*B1) don't want to have to go down the column & change when necessary. Exit is the same as entry with prices for exiting used. The foreign currency rate movement mentioned above is the difference between the entry & exit cost. Thanks in anticipation. Oldie |

You have a couple of options here.
1) With an IF statement = IF (YourCalculation=FALSE,"",YourCalculation) Replace the FALSE with your condition. 2) Using a conditional format. Example is for the FALSE condition. Select all cells that potentially could show FALSE Format - Conditional Formatting Cell Value is ... Equal To ... FALSE Change the font color to WHITE. I'm not sure I understand your 3rd question. -- HTH, Barb Reinhardt " wrote: Looking for help in solving several problems with a spreadsheet I am working on.
