multiplication of a blank cell
 
I know my title is an OXYMORON, what I described cannot be done, however here
is what I have to work with.... I have my pricing guide setup to calculate
cost based upon the master table item pricing. It populates the price based
upon the SKU number entered, if no SKU is entered it leaves the cell blank.
This is fine.

When I go to my estimate worksheet and enter the following ....
=IF('.'!G44="","",'.'!G44)*Info!AA44 ...
('.'!G44 is the cost from my pricing page times a markup *Info!AA44)
this gives me #VALUE.

Can I take this and make it blank if there is #VALUE? It changes all of my
tax and total fields to #VALUE and basically wipes out my entire 8 page
workbook
Thanks in advance

Try this:

=IF('.'!G44="","",'.'!G44*Info!AA44)

Does that help?

What if you change your formula to =IF('.'!G44="","",'.'!G44*Info!AA44) ?

You are trying to multiply "" by the value in AA44,
Try moving the bracket after G44 to after AA44
