I want to leave the columns B and H blank, until data is entered in column D. How do i do that?
The formula in column H is =B-D
I'm using using Excel on Mac.
Translation of column headers:
B4 - Total number of hours in bank
D4 - Number of hours used
F4 - Date
H4 - Remaining hours

Assuming Column B is a static value of 6.5 or your data comes from another cell/sheet/workbook/formula.
ISBLANK Method
In Column B
Since I do not know where your values for column B are coming from below are several options.
If your values in Column B are entered in manually try,
or if your values is remaining hours from Column H calculations,
or from another cell,
or even if from another sheet,
or from another workbook,
In Column H
