Default Cell formulas display "0" (zero's)

How can I get excel to not display a 0 (zero) in a cell with a simple
calculation like:
Z3+A4. I don't want the cells to display zeros before it displays the
calculation when entries are made into the formula cells and I don't want to
have to make the entries white to hide them. There's gotta be a way to not
show this value.

My thanks

Lenny

Maybe this:

=IF(Z3+A4<0,Z3+A4,"")

Regards,
