    [SOLVED] Stop #Ref! from showing up

    Is there anyway to stop cells telling you when there is a #REF! error?
    I just want the cell to be blank until the formula has something to show.

    I was thinking in something like a conditional formatting,

    =IF(ISERROR cell go blank, if not, act normally, but I need that to the entire sheet.

    Thank you!

    You could try in conditional formatting

    Select all the cells then

    Formula is =ISERR(A1)

    Then format...Font > Colour select white

    Obviously this will only work if all your cells with formulae have white backgrounds.
