How Do You Get ISNUMBER() To Work?
Greetings,
I am trying to change this cell formula to return a "0" with any value in C4 that is not a number (this works for "Loan", but I have found other entries in that column that it wont work with): =IF(C4="Loan",0,IF(G30,((I4*C4)*(1+H4)),((J4*C4)* (1+H4)))) I tried to use ISNUMBER(C4) like this: =IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(C4)),0,IF(G30,((I4*C4)*(1+H4)),( (J4*C4)*(1+H4)))) It only returns "0" regardless of what is in C4. Any idea as to what I did wrong? Any suggestions would be most appreciated. TIA -Minitman |

I would say the same... Also, why use the NOT(ISNUMBER(D4)) Use the IF(ISNUMBER(), here formula, 0) it is the sam -- Zur ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Zurn's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=1464 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?threadid=26751 |

How Do You Get ISNUMBER() To Work?
Hey Frank,
Column C is set to "Number". This is strange! Last night I lost my most recent changes to this spreadsheet when my OS did a core dump and rebooted. At that point I called it a night!. This morning when I got this reply, I tried to recreate the conditions that caused the problem. Now this formula is working. This is embarrassing! I would have assumed it was still broken if you hadn't sent your reply and I tried to duplicate the problem to answer your question. Your reply was indeed helpful, just not the way either one of us thought it would be - Thank you. -Minitman On Fri, 8 Oct 2004 08:06:53 +0200, "Frank Kabel" wrote: Hi any chance C4 is fomrated as 'Text'?.
