Cell with zero to appear as empty
Is it possible in Excel 2003 to make a cell with a formula, that has the
outcome zero, to appear as an empty cell? I am making a line graphic but I want the cells with zero not added in the graphic. How is this possible? -- Ewout |

Change your formulas to return the #N/A error instead of 0, which XL will
not graph. =IF(SUM(A1:A20),SUM(A1:A20),#N/A) =IF(A20*A10,A20*A10,#N/A) -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Ewout" wrote in message ...

here is another way to do this for example in column a you have jobs estimated and column b you have number of men working and column c would be the total hours worked (column a * column b) hide column c and use column d for the totals put this formula in column d =if(c1=0,"",c1) this will only show a value in d1. if b*a = 0 then nothing shows up in d. i hope this helps. |

Dear Bob,
Was already aware of that option, but then zero still appears in a graphic. The answer of RagDyer gave me what I needed. Thanks for the effort, though! -- Ewout "Bob Phillips" wrote: ToolsOptionsView uncheck Zero values. -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "Ewout" wrote in message ...
