Default empty cell question

I have a spreadsheet that has a column for figures for each day of the month,
I want to have an empty cell until the information is inputed for that day
or if there is not information the cell would stay blank and the next one
used as needed. I have my formula copied down for the month and that is why
there is a 0 until needed. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Post the formula that you're using.

Try
=IF(SUM(F5+E5=0),"",F5+E5)

It depends on if there is a possibility that *either* cell may *not* have to
be populated, meaning ... will *both* cells *always* contain a number, or
could there be a time when one might remain empty.

See which of these works for you:

=IF(AND(F5<"",E5<""),E5+F5,"")

=IF(OR(F5<"",E5<""),E5+F5,"")
