Dear Sir,
When VLOOKUP formula fails to find the perfect match it always return with #N/A. Usually #N/A disable me to do any computation that involve that cell. The result of any additional function always return with #N/A as well. To overcome this problem. I always convert the formulas to values, sort it out and clear those #N/A cells and enter zero to them. Just take an example of the formula = VLOOKUP(B2, K24: Q120, 6,FALSE), may In know if I could manipulate the formula to enable it to show 0.00 instead of #N/A when match could not be found ? Thanks Low A36B58K641 |

Which will mask all errors, not just the #NA
Better to use the ISNA function to trap. =IF(ISNA(vlookup)),0,vlookup)) Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Wed, 26 Sep 2007 07:52:03 -0700, Pranav Vaidya wrote: change your formula as.. =IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(B2, K24: Q120, 6,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP(B2, K24: Q120, 6,FALSE)) HTH, |
