<div>
When a cell is referenced from another location Excel converts empty cells to zeros. For example, placing the formula &quot;=A1&quot; in cell B1 results in B1 displaying &quot;0&quot; when A1 is empty. To get around this us this formula:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;=IF(A1=&quot;&quot;,&quot;&quot;,A1)<br />
<br />
When referencing ranges of cells use a multiple cell array formula:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;=IF($A$1:$Z$100=&quot;&quot;,&quot;&quot;,$A$1<wbr />:$Z$100)<br />
<br />
Multiple cell array formulas are entered by selecting the destination cells, entering the formula in the first cell, and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.<br />

When a cell is referenced from another location Excel converts empty cells to zeros. For example, placing the formula "=A1" in cell B1 results in B1 displaying "0" when A1 is empty. To get around this us this formula:

   =IF(A1="","",A1)

When referencing ranges of cells use a multiple cell array formula:

   =IF($A$1:$Z$100="","",$A$1:$Z$100)

Multiple cell array formulas are entered by selecting the destination cells, entering the formula in the first cell, and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER.

thanks for the reply. &nbsp;I am not sure I was clear in my question, so I will try to clarify. &nbsp;In Sheet1 I am looking for a formula in Cell A2, that will bring back the value in cell A2 in Sheet2. &nbsp;If the value is blank I want it to display 0, if the Value is 0, I also want it to display 0. &nbsp; Thanks.
