From: mrtintheweb on 19 Apr 2010 05:58 I have a spreadsheet that has dates in. The spreadsheet needs pre-poulated boxes that are blank but will show dates once data has been input. eg: A B C D 34 NAME DATE FUTUREDATE 35 John 15/03/10 =C35+(7*6) 36 D36 Cell shows as 11/02/1900 when C36 is not populated but want i to show blank until it is populated when I want the formula to kick in.
