Keeping the cell blank...
How do I prepare a cell with a formula, but keep it blank until the
information is added to activate the equation? |
One way to make it appear blank ..
Instead of in say, B1: =A1*5 Put it as: =IF(A1="","",A1*5) The " =IF(A1="","", ... " construct will provide the desired "blank" look in B1 until a number is input in A1 -- Rgds Max xl 97 --- GMT+8, 1° 22' N 103° 45' E xdemechanik <atyahoo<dotcom ---- "JP" wrote in message ...
