Question

The question may be a little difficult to comprehend and i cannot find better way to out it across. So here i am explaining with an image enter image description here

I have a formula in G8. I want to apply the formula to 500 rows.

But when i drag.. i get this enter image description here

What I want is that the formula should be present for all the 500 rows.. but zero should not be visible initially. That is, after I enter value in G9, value should be calculated in G9

I know that we can hide the zeros from the option of excel..but that does not serve my purpose. Is there any way to achieve what i need?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Type this in your result cells.

=IF(A11+B11 = 0, "", A11+B11)

Here A11+B11 is my formula to get the summation of A11 and B11.

OTHER TIPS

Modify your formula to check if F8 is empty:

=IF(F8<>"",F8/Working_Days,"")

control-tilde

It changes from "display answer" view to "display formula" view
