Default Ignore NA in a formula when I type it in a cell

=IF(F60,10,0)+IF(H6=1,10,0)+IF(I6=1,10,0)+IF(Q6 =0,10,0)+(K6*20)+(M6*20)+(O6*20)-SUM(R6+S6)

When I put a NA into cells K6, M6, O6, R6, S6, it won't calculate obviously
because NA is not a number. It gives me the error message. Is there some
way to bypass this when a cell has a NA?

Thanks!

Try this:

=((F60)+(H6=1)+(I6=1)+(Q6=0))*10+SUM(K6,M6,O6) *20-SUM(R6:S6)

Instead of K6*20 use something like SUM(K6)*20 or MIN(K6)*20. Looks silly
but this prevents the error message when K6 contains text like 'NA':

=IF(F60,10,0)+IF(H6=1,10,0)+IF(I6=1,10,0)+IF(Q6 =0,10,0)+(MIN(K6)*20)+(MIN(M6)*20)+(MIN(O6)*20)-SUM(MIN(R6)+MIN(S6))

Cheers,

Sorry, that was too fast. Better:
Instead of K6*20 use N(K6)*20.

The function N converts non-number values to numbers.
