Default Need help with formula...

Hi,
I have a list of numbers in column G. Some of the cells are NULL. Column H
multiplies these numbers by 1000. I then copied and pasted values over the
original formula. Where there is a NULL in column G, I of course got a
#VALUE! in column H. I now want to replace the #VALUE! with the original
NULL. I know I can do a find and replace, but my question is how have the
formula pull the null over to column H. Here is my formula so far:

=if(G16="null", G16,

If I end the formula there with a ) I get a FALSE where there is not a null.
I want it to ignore everything unless its null.

Hope that makes sense.

thx

How about...
=if(G16="", G16, G16 * 1000)

It looks like both of those answers will work.

Thanks for your help.
