Hi

Try
=IF(ISERROR(your_formula),"what you want to display",your_formula)

If you have XL2007 then
=IFERROR(your_formula,"What you want to display")

Lets say I implement the vlookup function and it displays #N/A in the cell
because it can't find what I am looking for - is there a way to change the
#N/A to a number or string of my choice?


Thanks,
