ModifyCellText

[mc]

I am using Excel 2007. I use the code below to copy the value to E2 and
add a period to middle initial. It all works fine except when there is
not a cell value to copy it returns a 0 to the E cell and I want the E
cell to remain empty. I tried to add "" to the false part of the if,
but it still copies a zero. What am I doing wrong?



I paste this formula into the E column

=IF(LEN(D2)=1,D2&".",D2) original code

=IF(LEN(D2)=1,D2&".","") my modified code

Thanks

correctly.
