Hiding sum formula answers in select cells
In Excel 2003 I have a simple sum formula that is copied down the column.
When I type in a value, it displays the answer all the way down the column. Is there a way to hide the answer in only the cells that are for rows where no value is typed in? For example: Cell B14 has the value 2 in it, and cells C14 - C29 have the total 2 displayed. I just want the total of 2 displayed in only C14 and hidden from C15 - C29. Is this possible? |

I'm not sure why you need a SUM formula - are you adding cells
together? From your example, you could do this in C14: =IF(B14<"",B14,"") and then copy this down to C29. Hope this helps.

Hiding sum formula answers in select cells
Pete_UK -- I did not describe what I need clearly enough. Sorry about that.
Let me try again. I am inputing a number of hours in cells B14 - B15 (eg: 2 hours & 3 hours), but I have space to input hours from B14 - B29. C14 - C29 should add up the total number of hours, adding together B14 & B15, etc...and displaying the sum total of both in C15 (eg: 5 hours). What is happening is that this total is repeated from C16 - C29. I am looking for a way to keep the formula in C16 - C29 but to hide the results of that formula so that the sum total is not repeated. I need all of the rows to be visible, so just hiding the rows is not an option. "Pete_UK" wrote: I'm not sure why you need a SUM formula - are you adding cells together?

Hi Pen
The formula in C14 will be =B14, then in cell C15 enter the formula as follow =If(B15="","",(B15+C14) Copy the formula down Hope this helped "pen" wrote: Pete_UK -- I did not describe what I need clearly enough.
