Hello,
I have a spreadsheet which returns live market prices. From time to time I receive an error as the price is no available, the error I receive is #N/A N.A.. I would like to display a warning message to the users that a price is in error, I would like to check a range of cells for the #N/A N.A. error, I have over 100 prices. I hope someone can let me know the best way to do this? I have tried ISERR and ISNA but it does not work and returns the result "FALSE". Thanks in advance, Brett |

It may be an error to you, but it's not to Excel. It's just text to Excel.
Using: =if(a1="#N/A N.A.","Price Not Available",a1) should work. Copy down for all your prices. -- Regards, Fred wrote in message ups.com...

Thanks in advance, Brett- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Thank you for your reply. Do you know if it is possible to use an IF Statement on a range. For example if A1:A100 contains "Error" display Error, if no error is found display "OK". Thanks, Brett |

One way would be:
=if(countif(a1:a100,"Error")0,"Error","OK") -- Regards, Fred wrote in message oups.com... On 23 Aug, 12:17, "Fred Smith" wrote: It may be an error to you, but it's not to Excel.
