Default using "if" but omitting the #n/a's

I am using a simple formula

=IF(AQ3<=10,TRUE,FALSE)

except I want to add....

if #n/a then put TRUE

how do I add that to my formula?

Thanks in advance!!!

=if(isna(aq3),true,if(aq3<10,true,false))
or
=if(isna(aq3),true,aq3<10)

Check out the IS Functions in the help file. ISNA will work for your
situation, but ISERROR will be a more general solution.

ISERROR masks all errors which could lead to problems.

ISNA would be my choice.

In you formula replace the word False with an if error formula, if its true
then put true if it is false then put ""

Not sure if it would work though

If you're not sure whether it would work, why not try it, DDD? [Microsoft
don't charge you extra to try a formula!]

The answer is that if AQ3 is NA() you'll get an NA() result from the first
formula, so you'd need to do the tests the other way round, testing for NA()
first before the AQ3<=10 test.
