make one cell identical to another
Simple question:
I want to make a cell on one sheet show an identical value to a similarly positioned cell on another sheet. The values in the cells on both sheets are used for mathematical calculations. However, there are blanks in some of the cells that i want to match as well. Problem is if I use the "=" function, then the cell that's doing the copying will show a zero if the original cell was a blank. Is there another function that I can use? Essentially, if I copy a blank cell, I want a blank cell to result, not one with a zero in it. anand |

Hi,
You can have the cell show blank by replacing something like =A1 with =IF(A1="","",A1) -- Cheers, Shane Devenshire "anand" wrote: Simple question: I want to make a cell on one sheet show an identical value to a similarly positioned cell on another sheet.
