0.00 would have to be coming from the VLOOKUP, which leads back to my
previous reply.

Hi Jerry,
maybe I havn't made my point clear,
if say d3 has a formula in it but appears blank and I use
another cell :
if(d3="","",Vlookup( etc )
it returns this 0.00 sometimes why ?
regards

See Help for VLOOKUP. As you have written the formula,
VLOOKUP assumes
that banking!$C$10:banking!$C$500 is in ascending order
(if that column
is not sorted, then you probably want to use the optional
4th argument).
As posted, if N10<banking!C10, then your formula will
return #N/A.
Othewise it will search down banking!$C$10:banking!$C$500
until it finds
the first value =N10.
For concreteness, say that occurs in row 27. If banking!
C27=N10, then
VLOOKUP will return banking!D27. If banking!C27N10,
then VLOOKUP will
return banking!D26, even if there is a value farther down
in
banking!$C$10:banking!$C$500 that is exactly equal to N10.

Hi,
why when I use vlookup on cells that have a formula in
does vlookup return me 0.00 values i.e.
if(vlookup($n10,banking!$c$10:banking!$j$500, 2)
="","",vlookup($n10,banking!$c$10:banking!$j$50 0,2))
n10=20091
banking has 20091 but this is obtained automatically
by :
=IF(J260,J26,"")
the values returned are sometimes correct or 0.00 AND
if $N
(X) is blank ( no returned value ) it always returns me
0.00
anyone any ideas how to overcome this please
thanks
steve.
