How do I write a VLOOKUP function that returns 0's, not neg vals?
I need to write a VLOOKUP function that will return a value of "0" if it
finds the number for which it had searched is negative. My thought is to use an IF logic function together with the VLOOKUP, but I just can't seem to successfully weave the two together. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks! |

How do I write a VLOOKUP function that returns 0's, not neg va
Thanks Bob, this seems to work standalone, but I still can't figure out how
to integrate it with the formula I'm using: =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($A10,Pg2!$A$2:$M$453,Y$3,FALSE)), "",VLOOKUP($A10,'NA Pg2'!$A$2:$M$453,Y$3,FALSE)) I must be a bit slow on the uptake. Where in this formula can I specify that neg. values should be returned as Zero?

I think this is what you need
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($A10,Pg2!$A$2:$M$453,Y$3,FALSE)), "", MAX(0,VLOOKUP($A10,'NA Pg2'!$A$2:$M$453,Y$3,FALSE))) -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "dbsavoy" wrote in message ...
