Use a formula such as the following:-
=IF(Sheet1!A1="","",Sheet1!A1)
Basically says that if the cell it is linked to is blank, then return a 'blank'
(albeit not a real one - cell is not actually empty), else return the value that
is in the cell.

When I paste a row link from another sheet it puts "0" in all the empty cells
is there a way to stop this and still have the cell update when I add
information on the first sheet?
