#VALUE error on VLOOKUP of text
You usually get #N/A or #REF from vlookups, when the range doesn't contain
your match criterion and when the column ref is invalid respectively. #VALUE usually means you've asked it to eg add a number to a word... =if(isna(vlookup1(),if(isna(vlookup2(),if(isna(vlo okup3(),if(isna(vlookup4(),if(isna(vlookup(5),"Not found",vlookup5())),vlookup4())),vlookup3())),vloo kup2())),vlookup1()) is one (horrid) way to get what you want, where you replace vlookupx() with the right vlookup formula. The alternative is to perform each vlookup in a seperate cell and then apply logice to those results.
