if vlookup
My apologies, tough to check some of these formulas without actual data. I
think if you follow what Pete has posted it will work as he is checking to
see if the result = 0 where i had erroneously checked for a "".

See if this does the trick, if it is blank it should stay blank otherwise it
will calculate your formula.

I'm using a vlookup to populate my summary sheet with data from the MASTER
DATABASE sheet
=VLOOKUP($B2, 'MASTER DATABASE'!$A:$AY,8,FALSE)
The above formula works fine - except for when the cell where I am pulling
the data from is blank. Excel then returns a value of 0 and I want the cell
to remain blank. I know this is some variation of an IF statement but can't
get it to work.
Thank you.
