Source and Destination worksheet difference
 

I am using this formula to enter text into a column of cells of the source
worksheet and the corresponding column of cells in the destination worksheet;
=IF('End Bal'!B5="","",'End Bal'!B5). I enter this formula into cell B5 of
the destination worksheet and then copy down the column. I would like the
rule to be in effect for any text I type into the source worksheet except
when I enter the words NO SHOW, in this case I would like the destination
cell to remain blank. How do I accomplish this? I am using Excel 2007 but the
formula must be Excel 2003 compatible.
Thanks,
Malcolm

Another way to write the same formulas already suggested...

=IF(OR('End Bal'!B5={"","No Show"}),"",'End Bal'!B5)

To the 3 Great Minds,
Thanks guys, they all worked. You all must have very strong necks to support
those giant brains. Could you modify the formula to only work in the
destination cell if the letter "S" is entered in the source cell? Again
thanks to all 3.
Best Regards,
Malcolm
