Return blank cell if value you vlookup is not on pivot
 

This is similar to other questions I've seen posted but unfortunately I can't
get my formula to work. If the value I lookup does not have a value on the
pivot table I'm searching, I'd like to return a blank cell instead of #N/A in
the cell. The vlookup formula I'm using is: =VLOOKUP($B2,'Vacay
Pivot'!$A$5:$G$1788,2,FALSE) I'm by no means great in excel so if anyone can
offer advice as to how to use an if statement with this lookup formula to
return a blank cell instead of #N/A I would be SOOO grateful.
Thank you!

One way:

=IF(COUNTIF('Vacay Pivot'!$A$5:$A$1788,$B2),VLOOKUP($B2,'Vacay
Pivot'!$A$5:$G$1788,2,0),"")
