Hi all, I have a formula that looks at the cell value on one sheet and
adds it to the previous value on the original sheet, my problem is
this....where this formula appears it shows the last summed value so in
this case from S6 down to Sxxx it will show the value £813 because this
is the last value it added, in the formula below i would like it to
state that if 'Account Entry'!S6 is zero then dont calculate S6+S5 just
show zero! is this possible in a formula? =IF('Account
Entry'!S6="","0",'Account Entry'!S6+S5)

Regards,
Simon

In your sample formula it looks like you are checking to see if S6 is a blank
cell, if so enter a 0. you could try =IF('Account Entry'!S6=0,"0",'Account
Entry'!S6+S5)

Just use

=IF(S6=0,0,S5+S6)

that will take care of empty cells as well

Thanks for the reply guys!, the cells that the formula looks at on
another sheet do not always have a zero in them, my problem is that if
i copy my formula down in a column and say the first 3 figures are
1,2,3 then S4 will look at S4 on the Account Entry sheet and then add
S3 off the sheet that is doing the calculation, if i have copied the
formula down then assuming S4 on the Account Entry sheet is 0 every
cell i copied down to will display 6 i would like them to display 0
until there is a value in S4 on the Account Entry sheet!

Hope its possible!

Simon
