    IFERROR is providing correct answer but not providing a blank Cell when it should

    I'm attempthing to sum several cells over 12 worksetts name Week 1 through Week 12, the equation is coming out correctly when it has a value to sum, but if the cells are empty it is showing a 0.


    IFERROR('Week 1'!B$6:B$9+'Week 2'!B6:B9+'Week 3'!B$6:B$9+'Week 4'!B$6:B$9+'Week 5'!B$6:B$9+'Week 6'!B$6:B$9+'Week 7'!B$6:B$9+'Week 8'!B$6:B$9+'Week 9'!B$6:B$9+'Week 10'!B$6:B$9+'Week 11'!B$6:B$9+'Week 12'!B$6:B$9,"")

    I have just realized my answers are not coming out correctly either.

    That's because a sum total of 0 is not an error.

    I assume you want a blank?

    =IFERROR(1/(1/SUM('Week 1:Week 12'!B$6:B$9)),"")

    Yes that is correct, I would like the cell to remain blank if no value is provided. This formula worked perfectly.
