Hi Ralph, 'sound' advice depends on 'clear' problem statements. ' in columns with a nil or zero value' could mean 'some cells have no value entered' or 'some cells have a zero entered' or 'the formula in some cells has generated a zero value.' Putting a1 in brackets, (a1), does not return any value (neither zero, nor a blank, nor any character or space). The only solution is to click on the cell then click the input bar and press enter. The problem vanishes and it becomes a blank cell, which also returns a value of zero. How to fill blank cells with 0 or other specific value in Excel? Network administrator software free download. _ 'Fill Empty Cells') For Each cell In Selection If IsEmpty(cell) Then cell.Value = InputValue End If Next End Sub. Click button to run the code, and a prompt box will appear. You can input any value into the blank box that you need. ' have as yet no values added.' Implies that any value in these cells is an entered (ie. Not calculated) value and that an 'empty' cell in 'These cells' is actually empty and contains neither an entered datum nor a formula. There is no menu command to ignore 'empty' cells. That must be built into the formulas referencing those cells. There is no formula that can produce a truly 'empty' cell. The closest possible result is a cell containing either an invisible character (eg. A space) or a null string (a text item with zero length). ISBLANK can be used to detect a truly empty (ie. Blank) cell, but will not detect a cell containing a formula (which is, of course, not empty). LEN(cell ref). Hi Ralph, 'sound' advice depends on 'clear' problem statements.

Hello Barry, thank you very much for your very comprehensive explanation, it has been a help. However all I wanted to do was find a setting in preferences or wherever, to not show cells with no data entered yet. I have added a sample of an Excel file, imported into Numbers and now the look has changed. The excel system preferences has a check-box where you can select to Not show zeroes. That is all I wanted to achieve, without having to create fairly complex formulas, beyond my current ability. I do appreciate your input and will study the procedures you suggested and hope to be able to apply them.

Hi Ralph, Looks like I over-interpreted your use of 'ignore'. Zero values that are 'hidden' are still contained in the cell, and will be used in calculations depending on that cell. In some cases, this presents no problem, but in others (eg. AVERAGE(B3:B7) ) there will be a significant difference in the result where B4 and B6 contain (hidden) zeroes from that when B4 and B6 contain text values or are truly empty of data.
