Re: Hiding error formulas in spreadsheet

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



A couple of other options:

Use the formula: =IF(ISERROR(cellref),"No Data",cellref) Of course you can
substitute anything you prefer between the quotes as the Value_If_True or
just use "".

Use Conditional Formatting: Choose "Formula Is:" from the dropdown then
enter the formula =ISERROR(cellref) & choose white as the Font color.

NOTE: [cellref is the cell you're putting the IF() function in or applying
the Conditional Formatting to]

Can you please help

I am trying to hide error messages that show within a spreadsheet.

Currently when I 'drag' a formula to complete the rest of the columns for
automatic infilling it displays the hash sign plus DIV/0!.

The formula is right and doing what it should do but is there a way I can
'turn off' the error display in the cell so it is blank until populated.

Many thanks
