    Re: True or false not working with if error in zero values

    ="0" is text not a number.
    while 0 custom formatted as "-" is a number.
    That's why your evaluation returns the unexpected (while technically correct) result.

    Probably because you're entering zero as a text value and not a number

    remove the inverted commas
