Make an =if show - instead of 0

[Cube Farmer]

='Accounts Payable'!L3

I want this formula to show - if it is "0" .
The Accounts Payable L3 is also a formula.
Is an if error required?

Thanks for any help.

Hi Cube

You can use IF

=IF('Accounts Payable'!L3=0,"-",'Accounts Payable'!L3)

Couldn't you just format the target cell as Accounting number type?

An alternative to Ron's suggestion is to format the cell using Currency or
Accounting formats. These still leave the cell's value as zero, but display
a hyphen.
