Default how do I get excel to ignore blank cells in formulas

When I design a formula I will get the green upper left triangle indicating a
problem that the formula references a "blank" cell. At other times the same
formula will register #Value error.

I'm and old 123 user and this was never a problem, 123 just ignored the
bland and assumed the null was a zero. Is there any way to get Excel to also
assume a null is a zero?

triangles:

ToolsOptionsError Checking

Uncheck all of the Rules.
