Hiding Things In Excel

I have many cells that reference and make calculations from other cells. When these cells have no infomration in them they dislay "#DIV" or "0" or whatever else. I do not want the cells to have anything in them until something is entered.

Is there a way to keep the contents of these cells hidden until this is done?

 
What about putting error checking in your formulas. If you get an error, have it displayed as blank. For example:

If you are getting a 0, put:

=IF(<your formula>=0,&quot;&quot;,<your formula>)

or

=IF(ISERROR(<your formula>),&quot;&quot;,<your formula>)
