I have this working formula in N8 =LEFT(R8,FIND(":",R8))

Sometimes R8 has a string with no : and N8 returns #VALUE.

I want if N8 returns #VALUE then N8=""

I can get this far and don't know where the ) is supposed to go (from error alert box)so I can complete Value if True and Value if False

=IF(ISERROR(LEFT((R8,FIND(":",R8)) ??

Thanks,
Howard
