Can someone advise why this formula returns a "0" and not a blank?

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,Rawdata,13,FALSE)),"",VLOOK UP(A2,Rawdata,13,FALSE))

Thanks.

Gives a blank for me
Maybe column 13 of Rawdata is empty
best wishes

Because column 13 of Rawdata, row that has A2 in it, is zero or blank.

change the formula to
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,rawdata,13,FALSE)),"",TEXT( VLOOKUP(A2,rawdata,13,FALSE),""))

basically when the formula is true it i" s returning an integer value from
the "rawdata" range. also you can try changing the cell format to general
also.
