#N/A result because data is on another worksheet
I have this formula which refers to the Master Tab.
=VLOOKUP($B4,MasterTab!$H$21:$O$923,8,FALSE) It usually works great, however, when the data is not found ( because it's on another worksheet ( Minor Tab!), I get a #N/A. How can I re-write the formula that if the #N/A is produced, it does the Vlookup on the Minor tab! instead of the master tab! Something like: If =VLOOKUP($B4,MasterTab!$H$21:$O$923,8,FALSE) produces a #N/A, VLOOKUP($B4,MinorTab!$H$21:$O$923,8,FALSE, if not, use this original formula =VLOOKUP($B4,MasterTab!$H$21:$O$923,8,FALSE) Thanks, Steve |

#N/A result because data is on another worksheet
As long as the lookup value is on one or the other sheets...

#N/A result because data is on another worksheet
The lookup value would be on either the master sheet or the minor sheet, but
not both. There also may be a situation where it would not be on either. Trying the formula, results in a #REF! For the particular lookup value I'm using, that value in on the master sheet. "T.

Hmmm... Works just fine for me. However: There also may be a situation where it would not be on either. In that case, the formula would return #N/A. So, what result do you want when the lookup value isn't on either sheet? -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Steve" wrote in message ...

#N/A result because data is on another worksheet
Ok, It works now. You inadvertently had H - H on the first Master tab
reference instead of H - O, and I also eneterd it with both H's. Changing the 2nd H to an O makes it work great. Thanks, Steve "T.
