Conditionally add contents to a cell, with "Null" option?

Notices

Hi All,
The big green guy here, just wanted to let you all know that we now have the reputation system in place, the reputation system allows you to give a visible pat on the back to those that have helped you or whose information has been helpful.

You will see an icon in every post (Light Blue scales), click this to give the reputation point to whom you think deserves it, a green square appears for a reputation with more and more adding over time.Pretty soon you will see a string of green squares appear in the top right of your posts as your reputation grows and your forum presence!

Good Luck!
The Hulkster!

Conditionally add contents to a cell, with "Null" option?

If A1+A2>0, this cell displays A1+A2,
else
this cell shows nothing (not 0, not " ", not "N/A", but NOTHING)

Try:

=IF(A1+A2>0,A1+A2,"")

Nope...

One would THINK that'd work, but it does not for me.
I need the cell to act "empty"
(Use is for a chart... I want some cells to yield nothing, not "0" (or effectively 0)
Nothing - break in the chart line
"" - line drops to the bottom....
