Return blank cell if data cell is blank
I'm using a nested IF formula but want empty cells to return an empty cell.
Here is an example of the formula I am using: =IF(I5=40,"Low RIsk",IF(I5=20,"Some Risk",IF(I5<=19,"At Risk"))) When, in this case I5 is a bank cell, it is returning "at risk" as the value. I want a blank cell returned without having to delete the formula so that data can be inputting at a later time. |

=IF(I5=40,"Low RIsk",IF(I5=20,"Some Risk",IF(I5="","",IF(I5<=19,"At
Risk","Whatever value you want for I5 above 19 and below 20")))) or you may have intended =IF(I5=40,"Low Risk",IF(I5=20,"Some Risk",IF(I5="","","At Risk"))) -- David Biddulph "imckinne" wrote in message ...

Return blank cell if data cell is blank
You can create a null sting with "", ie nothing in a pair of double
quotes.
