    Leave cell blank with formula until percentage is typed in

    Good morning guys and greetings from Namibia

    After a thorough google search I am still stuck. Please help me.

    in column G all the results comes in like 87%, 25% etc.

    in column I it shows Pass, Fail

    which means if you got 80% and more in column G it will show pass in column I

    if you get 79%, it shows Fail in column I

    I use this formula;

    =IF(G12>79%,"Pass","Fail")

    Everything works well except I want to do the following:


    since we do not know how many learners we have I want the rows where the formula is to remain blank until a value eg 80% is typed in.

    Lets say you have typed in 5 results and there are 5 rows left, that formula in column I must remain but show blank until a value in column G is entered.


    Will it be possible?

    Hi and welcome.

    Try this if you type in the percentages manually:
    =IF(G12="","",IF(G12>79%,"Pass","Fail"))
    Or this if they are calculated:
    =IF(G12=0,"",IF(G12>79%,"Pass","Fail"))
