Default VLOOKUP and IF AND problem

I don't understand why you are checking if A2 exists in your TABLE, and
if it does you then try to match using A158 - if this doesn't exist
then it will return an error. Shouldn't your formula be:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A2,TABLE,3,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(A2, TABLE,3,FALSE))
or
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A158,TABLE,3,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(A 158,TABLE,3,FALSE))

Hope this helps.

Here is the VLOOKUP function I used:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A2,TABLE,3,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(A15 8,TABLE,3,FALSE))
I tried your suggestions and it still gives me the same error. Any other
suggestions?

Ok.. One more time. I'll get it right.

=IF(OR(F2=0,G2=0,G2=" "),"",F2-G2)

Sorry, I made a mistake in the formula for G2" ". The correct formula
should be:
=IF(OR(F20,G20,G2=" "),F2-G2,"")

You might try this:

=IF(OR(F20,G20,G2" "),F2-G2,"")

I am trying to using the following function: =IF(AND(F20,G20),F2-G2,"")
to
calculate the difference between F2 & G2 if there is a value in both, if
not
I want it to return a blank cell. In the cell G2 I have a Vlookup
function
that looks up values in a table, if there is not value for what it is
looking
up I have it returning a blank answer. When I do this and it returns a
blank
answer in G2, my answer to my equation gives me a #VALUE!. I have also
tried
the following fuction: =IF(ISBLANK(F2),"",IF(ISBLANK(G2),"",F2-G2)) and
this
returns the same answer. Any idea of how I can fix this problem?
