there is an error in formula can it be updated

Ooops!

My fault. In the COUNTIF function I have the arguments backwards.

Corrected version:

=IF(COUNTIF(CP$5:CP$65,ROW()-4),INDIRECT("B"&VLOOKUP(ROW()-4,CP$5:CR$65,3,0)),"")

That formula will return #N/A if the lookup value ROW()-4 can't be found
in
the lookup table. So, try this...

=IF(COUNTIF(ROW()-4,CP$5:CP$65),INDIRECT("B"&VLOOKUP(ROW()-4,CP$5:CR$65,3,0)),"")

I would like these cells with this formula to read a blank cell instead
of
#N/A
These cells read #N/A only until data is entered in other cells is this
possible
