Default Copy A1 into C1 if B1 contains data??

I want to copy whatever is in A1 into C1 if B1 has data. If b1 is blank then
c1 should remain blank. The data in a1 or b1 could be either text or
numbers. As long as anything is in b1 then c1 should contain whatever is in
a1.

Use this in C1:
=if(b1="","",a1)

Fred

Excellent! I was misplacing the quotation marks.
Thank you so much.
