If K35 is not blank, but some value that does not exist in the table this
will throw an error. I assume you meant to use OR. Although if a blank does
not exist in the OP's lookup table, the test K35="" may not be needed at all.

In this following formula, when the reference cells are not inputed yet an
N/A shows in the cell. The formula is as follows

How can this cell be a blank instead of N/A when there is nothing in the
referencing cells.- Hide quoted text -
