&nbsp;You are correct, originally the same problem, (mine) that was causing HemanthaKumar's answer not to work was also effecting your answer.<br />
<br />
In fairness I went back and tried your formula and indeed it does work and it does keep the field blank until it is used.<br />

Lotus Software produced the Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet program, and later developed Lotus Notes, a groupware and email system. Following its acquisition by IBM, the Notes and Domino client/server collaborative platform were expanded to include functions such as email, calendars, to-do lists, contacts management, teamrooms, discussion forums, file sharing, microblogging, instant messaging, blogs, and user directories. IBM also release SmartSuite, a comprehensive office suite, and followed that with Symphony, unrelated to the Lotus suite of the same name.
