Returning an alternative value if lookup cannot be found in array
I think I need to use an IF statement but I'm not sure how to do it ...
This is my current formula =VLOOKUP(A6,Pricing!C1:D1871,2,0) If this value, A6, cannot be found in the array I get the following returned #N/A If #N/A is returned I want Excel to put 0 (zero) How do I do that please? |

Like this:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A6,Pricing!C1:D1871,2,0)),0,VLOOK UP(A6,Pricing! C1:D1871,2,0)) Hope this helps.
