    Re: Formula to display blank if a cell is blank and to display text if value does not matc

    you add an extra test to see if A3 and A3 have an argument in it. if the count is not 2 then one of them is blank and cell needs to be blank..
    you can use an OR() function to test both criteria at once.

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =IF(OR(A3=D3,COUNTA(A3,D3)<>2),"","Remove")

    It works with Letters and Numbers
    The value in A3 and D3 are FirstName.LastName
    their unique Domain ID
    The formula provided works with the sample provided Sup 1 OM 1 but not with FirstName.LastName

    Thanks for looking into it Sir
