Excel query

Hi! I have an Excel question. I have a spreadsheet with a bunch of names and numbers and I've connected the sheet to a phone software, =HYPERLINK("callto:"&SUBSTITUTE(cellnumber;"";""))

My problem is that the function also returns a value for the blank cells, so the spreadsheet looks cluttered.

Looks like this:

0789965 | callto: 0789965 0789965 | callto: 0789965 __________| callto: 0789965| callto: 0789965 __________| callto: 0789965 | callto: 0789965

. Do any of you guys know how to make it so that if you click and drag a function, it will refrain from computing rows were the variable is a blank cell?

I prefer not to hide rows, so the Go To Special > Blank cells > Ctrl + 9 doesn't do me favours.
