Please can you copy and paste the formula you have entered, and I may be able
to tell you where you went wrong.

Thank you your formula works, it is just very long.
Is there not a setting I can change on my PC? as my collegues laptop gives a
0 and not the #N/A result automatically when using the normal formual e.g.:
=VLOOKUP(A56,Per3!$A$1:$D$109,4,FALSE)

Thanks
Natasha

Hi, thanks for your response.
The formula works, it is: =VLOOKUP(A56,Per3!$A$1:$D$109,4,FALSE)
My problem must be a setting somewhere. When there is a line where no info
or result are, it gives me a #N/A instead of a 0. My colleges Laptop
automatically gives a 0 and I do not know why.
Thanks
Natasha

The only way I would write it would be.

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A56,Per3!$A$1:$D$109,4,FALSE)) ,0,VLOOKUP(A56,Per3!$A$1:$D$109,4,FALSE))

Hope this helps.

Fraid not. You could use conditional formatting to hide #N/A but I would
advise against it, I don't beleiev in hiding errors, better to deal with
them.
