Default Conditional formatting a #N/A return in a cell? I want it white.

I would like to format the '#N/A' results (from a VLookup) in a column to be
white or invisible, but because it is neither a value or a formula, I am
having trouble. Any ideas?

Why not do this instead?
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUPHERE),"",VLOOKUP)
That way, if it's #N/A, then it shows nothing in the cell.

Hope it helps!

But to answer your question, use:

If A1 is the cell you want to Conditionally Format
Under Formula is
=ISNA(A1)
