    Zero - problem

    Dear to all,

    In the attachment I have put an excell file ... I have to delete each time all the 0's manually ... now is there a possibility to delete the "0" automatically?

    Note the green triangles on the upper left of each cell.

    Thank you !

    Best regards,

    Haerens

    Hi

    Tools>Options>General>uncheck the Zero Values box

    If you want to get rid of the Green Triangles
    Tools>Options>Error Checking>uncheck Enable background error checking

    You have green triangles because your numbers (0) are stored as text.
    To solve this problem click on cell with a green triangle (a yellow box with ! should appear).
    Select all
    Find that box and choose: Convert text to numbers.

    To solve problem with no showing zero go to Excel options -> Advanced
    And uncheck box under Display options for this woksheet -> Show a zero in cells that have zero value

    find /replace
    find 0
    replace with nothing
    make sure you have the" find entire cells only" option checked
