IF function
I have an if function that relies on dates... the formula works every time
unless the value is = 0 .. then it displays -1.13687E-13 as the value... how can i fix this?!?! |
IF function
What is your formula? And when the value is zero, what value are you
referring to? -- John C "Rebecca" wrote: I have an if function that relies on dates... the formula works every time unless the value is = 0 .. then it displays -1.13687E-13 as the value... how can i fix this?!?! |
IF function
You can "nest" IF functions, so you could skip the current IF by
checking for 0. Assuming that your date is in A5: =IF(A5=0,"",[current if]) The "" piece inserts a null string if the test is true (which serves to make the cell appear empty) - and note that there are 2 double quotes in there and not 4 apostrophes.

OK, Rebecca, now you've got us interested. Is the next phase of the game
the one where we have to guess what your formula might be, or are you going to give us a clue? :-) -- David Biddulph "Rebecca" wrote in message ...

IF function
Or, to put it another way, =IF(ABS(your_formula)<1.2E-13,42,your_formula)
