Default Hide/Don't Display Values

I have a secondary spreadsheet that obtains its values (text and numbers)
from a primary spreadsheet. Since some of the values in the primary
spreadsheet are blank, the secondary spreadsheet displays "0" for blank text
and $0.00 for blank numbers.

How do I hide these values in the spreadsheet, without losing the formulas?
I want to make sure that the values can be seen in the secondary spreadsheet
in the future if any valid values are entered.

Thank you.

Consider an easy way?
Just suppress the display of zeros in the sheet via:
Tools Options View tab
Uncheck "Zero values" OK
