Hi Phil,

I'm guessing you have one or more spaces in the cell. Trying to add a
number to a text string will give you the #VALUE! error.

One way to get around this is to make sure O4 is a number:

=IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(O4)),"",O4+TIME(G4,0,0))

I have several cells that appear to be empty. If I run the below

do, but others return #Value!
It appears to be the O column, as if I take the vale from an empty
"O" that is OK, and then paste it in to a broken "O", then it returns
a blank.

How can I correct this?
Do I need to correct the data? If so, how? or do I rewrite the
formula to "trap" the error? I have another formual that works
against this cell, and if the error is here, I then get a error in
the other formula.

=IF(ISBLANK(O4),"",O4+TIME(G4,0,0))


Thanks
Phil
