Thanks very helpful

I think that for Excel 2007, Stefi intended to suggest
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(yourarguments),"") as an alternative to Excel 2003's
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(yourarguments)),"",VLOOKUP(you rarguments))
If you want a zero as the result in the error condition, replace "" in the
formula by 0.

Thanks
the value is coming up "TRUE" rather than zero.
Is there a way of excel putting zero instead.
Cheers

In Excel2007 there is a more compact solution.
For highlighting apply
=ISERROR(VLOOKUP(yourarguments)) as conditional formatting formula!

Hi
I am using Vlookup formula refering to a 2 column table of which the
left is
a code and the right colmn is the amount. if the code is not found I
want it
to come up zero rather than N/A, so if the table is updated in future
with
different codes it will still come up correctly. Maybe it can highlight
the
cell a different colour if it cannot find that code in the table?
