Empty cell is not empty
I have a sheet with three columns:
colA colB colC
colA and colB should show a date and are formatted to xx/xx/xx e.g: 12/03/24 or there may be no date.
There is a formula that will populate or make zero colA: =IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$BN$2,AGGREGATE(15,6,COLUMN($B$2:$BN$2)/(L8:BX8<>””),1)-1),)
If this formula produces a date all is well. But if there is no date to show in colA I see this: 00/01/00
So yes, I turn of ‘show zeros’ in preferences. But the formula in colC which is designed to consolidate colA and colB sees this “zero” date result and fails. By failure I mean nothing shows in colC when the correct result in colC should be the content of colB
