    Formula Not Calculating

    Hello,

    This is probably a simple fix that I am overlooking, but I am very frustrated. I am trying to get the formula in row 25 to calculate. I need it to calculate when there are numbers present in rows 15-24. If there is nothing in those rows, then it needs to be blank. Simple, right? Well, those rows are calculated as well so when they don't have a return, they are blank. I can't get that formula in row 25 to calculate since they are calculated blanks. I just can't seem to figure it out for some reason. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I've attached the file I am working on as well. It's the MILK SHEET tab.

    Replace quotes in you formulas with 0

    =IF('PASTE IN'!D6+'PASTE IN'!D11/2+'PASTE IN'!D16+'PASTE IN'!D21/2=0,0,'PASTE IN'!D6+'PASTE IN'!D11/2+'PASTE IN'!D16+'PASTE IN'!D21/2)

    The IF part is redundant: you can hide ) by formatting as

    It doesn't like the null strings - the ""

    Change the formulae to :

    =IF('PASTE IN'!D6+'PASTE IN'!D11/2+'PASTE IN'!D16+'PASTE IN'!D21/2=0,0,'PASTE IN'!D6+'PASTE IN'!D11/2+'PASTE IN'!D16+'PASTE IN'!D21/2)

    You can hide the zeros, if you don't like them by applying a custom format to the cells (CTRL -1 Custom and Type:
    #,##0;-0;;@

    see file.
