    Formula to Omit characters and also remain blank if #VALUE!

    Hello everyone,
    New to the Excel Forum but looking forward to your expertise.

    I am attempting to create a formula that will do all of the following..

    1) Return the text from another cell (ie. =B10)
    2) Omit the first 4 characters (ie. =RIGHT(B10,LEN(B10)-4)))
    3) Remain blank if the source cell is also blank. Not sure how to embed this IF part.

    I keep getting a #VALUE!

    Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
