Formula to use one or the other cell amount

[Guest]

I want a cell to show the amount of one of two other cells. Of the two other
cells, only one will have an amount at any time.

for cell D10, if D5 has an amount, use that amount in D10. If D5 does not
have an amount, use the amount in D7 for D10.

One way

In D10:
=IF(COUNT(D5,D7)=0,"",SUM(D5,D7))

Put this formula in D10:

=IF(OR(D5="",D5=0),D10,D5)

Hope this helps.

=IF(D5,D5,D7)

Sorry, this should be:

=IF(OR(D5="",D5=0),D7,D5)
