Conditional IF
 
I have this equation in the column E cells:

=IF(VLOOKUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)0,VLOOKUP(D3,$H $2:$I$17,2,FALSE)*C3,0)

What I am trying to do is if there is no data in column D cells, I want it
to enter a zero (0). It is currently returning the #N/A error, wich is the
same error if I only had the vlookup () equation.

I want it to return a zero (0) because at the bottom I am summing the
content wich will return #N/A if one cell contains that message.

Thanks for any help

Hey Hon,

Try this:

=IF(D3="",0,IF(VLOOKUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)0,VL OOKUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)*C3,0))

Assuming that D3 has nothing in it this would give you a 0 in E3.

Hi!

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP (D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)*C3)

You can also use something like this to ignore the #N/A:

=SUMIF(E1:E10,"<#N/A")

Try:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP (D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)*C3)

I think what you want is:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)),0,VLOO KUP(D3,$H$2:$I$17,2,FALSE)*C3)
