Hi
this ISERROR2 kind of function does not exist directly in Excel. You
can of course create it.
for storing a variable have a look at
http://makeashorterlink.com/?J32E23767
(option 2+3 - the latter one reposted below)
-----
Public Function V(Optional vrnt As Variant) As Variant

Static vrntV As Variant
If Not IsMissing(vrnt) Then vrntV = vrnt
V = vrntV
End Function
------

use it in your formula as follows:
IF(ISERROR(V(your_formula)),"Error",V())

I often use the ISERROR function to wrap around a formual that may
have
a an error in it. I use if nested in an If stmt to say if the
formual
generates an error, then produce a zero value otherwise, do I want I
want it to. For example:

IF(ISERROR(A1/B1),0,A1/B1)

Problem is that you have to type in the fist part of the formual
A1/B1
again at the end of the IF stmt. This is really a pain if the
condition
is ver large:

=IF(ISERROR(IF(Inputs!$G$550 =

"Denominator",(Statements!H101+Statements!H102 )/(Statements!H101+Statem
ents!H102+Statements!H106),1)),0,IF(Inputs!$G$550
=

"Denominator",(Statements!H101+Statements!H102 )/(Statements!H101+Statem
ents!H102+Statements!H106),1))

Is there a formual or userdefined function that acts like an iserror
wrapped in an If stm that will allow me to not repeat the formula?
It
would look like this:

Iserror2(condition,result if condition is false)
or
Iserror2(A1/B1,0)
or
Iserror2(IF(Inputs!$G$550 =

"Denominator",(Statements!H101+Statements!H102 )/(Statements!H101+Statem
ents!H102+Statements!H106),1)),0)

Does anybody know if this exists or hoe to build this in VBA?

thnx
