You can of course alter your "other" formulae so that instead of testing to see if value in cell = "" you test to see if = 0.
If you really are determined to double evaluate...
The board software inserted a space into Sweep's formula when listing "information" and I think his sheet references are missing the trailing space
(ie Information! as opposed to 'Information '!) ... if you alter references accordingly it should work ok.
A (very) slight alternative to sweeps
In the above given you're returning a fixed row (2) you can simply set that row as your reference range -- no need to reference other rows.
I would still advise you update your other formulae and use formatting given you're not adding any additional tests to slow your other formulae down you are merely altering the conditional test from "" to 0.
Your choice though obviously and you should do whichever you think makes most sense in your situation.
Cheers
