Thank you both for your replies. However, both of your solutions has a
minbor side effect:
What about if, for example, A1 contains 0?

This is what I want:
In B1 I type: =A1

Now, I want A1 and B1 to show the following:
A1=Hey Man! => B1=Hey Man!
A1=375 => B1=375
A1=   => B1=
A1=0 => B1=0

Without doing anything, this is what is viewed:
A1=Hey Man! => B1=Hey Man!
A1=375 => B1=375
A1=   => B1=0
A1=0 => B1=0

With your suggestions, this is what is viewed:
A1=Hey Man! => B1=Hey Man!
A1=375 => B1=375
A1=   => B1=
A1=0 => B1=


The point is that I if A1=0, 0 should be what I see in B1. If A1 is empty,
B1 should look empty too.


Thanks anyway for your suggestions. At least I learned something new that
might come handy in other situations.  =)


Regards


Johnny

If you want to hide all zero values, you can also change the "Options -
Calc - View - Zero values" setting.
