Folks- I need to do some comparisons in Excel. Basically if this cell = this value then I want this output. I need to write this in a function that can be used in other spreadsheets. I have written the function and it works but here is my question. How does Excel treat a blank or empty cell? is it's value '0' or "" or null? Also when I am working with this and I modify the function, is there a way to recalculate the spreadsheet? After I change the function the values are not updated. -Anthony ************************************************************* You are receiving this mail because you subscribed to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or MicrosoftOffice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To send mail to the group, simply address it to mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To Unsubscribe from this group, send an email to mso-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?Subject=unsubscribe Or, visit the group's homepage and use the dropdown menu.
