Hi

I use the if function and the iserror to eliminate the #na

if(Iserror(vlookup(...)),0,vlookup(...))
the iserror can be replaced by isna

The 0 can be replaced by "" this makes it need
The conditional formatting will refer to a text field ""

The problem I am having is when I try to set up Conditional Formatting for
the values in that column. It will not work if the selected range runs over
top of that #N/A value.
Is there a way around this problem? I would just a soon that it overlook the
#N/A value. *

Thank you!

I think you have given the info that I need, but am having a hard time
applying it.
I just changed it to this, but is says I have an error. Do you see one here?
This returns a percentage difference between to sets of data, and I'm trying
to emit the N/A when one of the sets of data is not there?

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($Q3,Import!$Q:$CA,16,FALSE)/(VLOOKUP($Q3,'Old
Import'!$Q:$CA,16,FALSE))))-1

Thank you!
