I am trying to use Xcelsius to build some what-if dashboards but Xcelsius
does not support the ISERROR function in Excel. Does anyone know of an
alternaitive for the ISERROR function. Below is a sample of the formule where
I want to replace ISERROR.

=IF(ISERROR(F8/1000),"",(F8/1000))

Try this:

=IF(ISNUMBER(F8/1000),F8/1000,"")

An alternative to ISERROR but I have no idea if it's compatible with
Xcelsius:

=IF(COUNT(F8/1000),F8/1000,"")

If F8/1000 = an error, COUNT = 0 and IF returns the value_if_false agument
"".

This is a great formula for a number. Is there any solution for a character
field?

ISERROR should work on text strings.

Do you have an example of how you would like it used or what doesn't work
when you do use it?
