want blank cell when formula returns value "0"

. A B C
1 1 2 2
2

case 1 :

SUM(B1-A1) = RESULT IS 1

case 2 :

SUM(B1-C1) = RESULT IS 0

in case 2, I want the blank cell to be returned when the formula result is "0"

thank you.

You could amend your formula to this:

=IF(SUM(B1-C1)=0,"",SUM(B1-C1))

or you could keep the same formula and apply a Custom Format to the cell of:

General;-General;;

and this will cause zero values to be displayed as blanks.

Hope this helps.
