Use IF(ISERROR(Formula),"",Formula)

If you have multiple entries you could use a macro also.

Hi!

To use cf:

Select the cell
Conditional Formatting
Formula is: =ISERROR(cell_reference)
Set the font color to be the same as the background color

Another way:

Instead of using cf put an error trap in the formula that is returning the
#NUM! error.

=IF(ISERROR(your_formula)),"",your_formula))
