Microsoft Excel Tutorial: Replace Blank Cells with Zero in Excel.
I used to solve this problem with Home, Find & Select, Go To Special, Blanks, OK, 0, Ctrl+Enter. There is a faster way, using Ctrl+H, as shown in today's episode.

Welcome back to the MrExcel Podcast. In this episode, we will be discussing how to replace empty cells with zero in Excel. This is a common issue that many Excel users face, especially when working with large datasets. But don't worry, I have two solutions for you today - one that you may have heard before and a new one that I recently discovered.

As you can see, we have a lot of empty cells in our data. Before creating a pivot table, it's important to fill these cells with a value, such as zero. The first solution is to use the Find and Replace function. Simply press Ctrl+H, leave the "Find What" field blank, and enter "0" in the "Replace With" field. Then, click "Replace All" and all the empty cells will be replaced with zeros. I learned this trick from someone in the audience during one of my Power Excel seminars and I have been using it ever since.

The second solution involves using the Go To Special function. Select all the cells, go to Find and Select, then click on Go To Special. In the dialog box, select "Blanks" and click OK. This will select all the empty cells in the dataset. Then, enter "0" and press Ctrl+Enter to fill all the selected cells with zeros. However, I recently discovered that using Ctrl+H is a faster way to achieve the same result. So, it's definitely a cool tip to keep in mind for future use.

Thank you for tuning in to this episode of the MrExcel Podcast. I hope you found these solutions helpful and will be able to save time and effort when working with empty cells in Excel.
