    Leaving the result cell empty is no data in the cells relating to the formula

    Hi

    Can someone let me know how I can leave a result cell empty unless there is data in the cells that the formula points to.

    eg =(A1*A2-A3) If this formula is in cell A4 and I want to copy down but have no data in the cells below. What will the formula be? ie to have no zero in the empty cell.

    I know it's an IF formula but ???

    Thanks

    Chris

    =if(A1="","",<formula>)

    extended for multiple precedents:

    =if(or(A1="",A2="",A3=""),"",<formula>)

    If you feel really indebted please consider a donation to charity. My preferred charity is ActionAid but there are plenty of worthy alternatives.
