This has to be simple but......
Sorry I suspect this is a very simple question but I am afraid its stumped me I have used a VLOOkUP on a set of dates. When a cell in the range I am looking up is blank Excel is putting in the date of 00/01/1900 which in turn is reeking havoc with a chart I am building. How do I change the furmula or format the cell so that LOOKUP shows a blank cell when the cell it is looking up is blank rather than this meaningless date. -- Fullam ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fullam's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=33363 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=536430 |

Another way of doing it: =IF(isblank(VLOOKUP(...))=true,"",VLOOKUP(...)) -- BlueDaze ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BlueDaze's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=27465 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=536430 |
