Default Vlookup.

If a cell is blank where the vlookup function is searching, the answer it's
returning is "0"

How can I have a blank cell instead of a 0??

Hi,

Try this

=IF(VLOOKUP(C1,A1:B20,2,FALSE)="","",VLOOKUP(C1,A1 :B20,2,FALSE))

This will still return NA# if the lookup values isn't found.
