I get #value! after using vlookup.......Im trying to multiply the price per

=sum(F18*B18+G18) F18 gets its info from the vlookup formula which is
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(C18,Table1,3,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP( C18,Table1,3,FALSE)) any
ideas?


It looks like you have provided a value in C18 that is not found in
the table and thus giving the cell F18 to hold "".
Trying to multiply that "" with the number in B18 gives #VALUE! error.

So, what is the expected result in the case C18 can not be found in
the table?
