if v lookup formula
I have this formula
=IF(VLOOKUP(A26,TUESDAY!$A$5:$AC$124,$P$1,FALSE)=" ","DNP",(VLOOKUP(A26,TUESDAY!$A$5:$AC$124,$P$1,FAL SE))) What I would like this to do is if there is nothing in the cell it should put DNP and if there is the numbers 0,1,2,3,4 I want it to put those numbers in the cell. Can you help me Thank you Dwalston |

Doesn't your formula do that?

if v lookup formula
.. if there is nothing in the cell ..
I presume you are referring to the vlookup's return? Don't see anything wrong with your formula per se. It could be a case of a white space throwing expected returns off (the white space in the cell will look like the "nothing"). You could try wrapping a TRIM around the vlookup, like this: =IF(TRIM(VLOOKUP(A26,Tuesday!$A$5:$AC$124,$P$1,FAL SE))="","DNP",TRIM(VLOOKUP(A26,Tuesday!$A$5:$AC$12 4,$P$1,FALSE))) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "dwalston" wrote: I have this formula =IF(VLOOKUP(A26,TUESDAY!$A$5:$AC$124,$P$1,FALSE)=" ","DNP",(VLOOKUP(A26,TUESDAY!$A$5:$AC$124,$P$1,FAL SE))) What I would like this to do is if there is nothing in the cell it should put DNP and if there is the numbers 0,1,2,3,4 I want it to put those numbers in the cell.

I'm confused. What exactly is this cell you are referring to? A26? Or P1? Or the vlookup's table array? Pl re-explain clearly your scenario -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- |

There's nothing wrong with your formula.
I'm betting that you're looking in the wrong column for the return value. What's in P1? -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "dwalston" wrote in message ...
