Z ZenMasta Oct 8, 2007 #6 Thanks, I don't use excel much and 99% of what I was doing was multiplying and adding multiple fields per row and I didn't even think to use the equal sign and field name.

T Tyro Oct 8, 2007 #7 If you simply use =AA2, if AA2 is empty, you'll have a 0 in the cell where you put the formula =IF(AA2="","",AA2)

T Tyro Oct 8, 2007 #8 Sorry misread, you said when it's not a number. Put this formula in A2: =IF(AA2<>"",IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(AA2)),AA2,""),"") If AA2 is not empty and AA2 is not a number A2 will equal AA2. Tyro
