Default Index, Match

Not sure what you're looking for. If Index() references an empty cell,
the value returned *is* 0.

Normally this works very well. The one problem I have experienced is when
the Index, Match portion references an empty cell. What do I need to add to
have this situation return "0". This way (my hope is) that subsequent
calculations won't return #value! errors. I understand =IF(A25=9,"" will
return a blank cell, however if this is the case then that cell would not be
used in any subsequent calculations.

Thanks Again!
