I have this formula:

=IF(ISERROR(INDEX('8DBC'!$A$1:$BG$500,MATCH($A10,' 8DBC'!$A$1:$A$500,0),49)),"",INDEX('8DBC'!$A$1:$BG $500,MATCH($A10,'8DBC'!$A$1:$A$500,0),49))

I need to be able to see if there is data in the range matching up in
8DBC, column 49, if not, to draw information from SI-1, column 4. How
do I format this formula to do just that?

I have tried, but I struggle with formula error's :)

Regards

What's your criteria when selecting a proper value from sheet SI-1?

You need a function to select a value from sheet SI-1 when ISERROR() is
true.

Hi,

Not to worry, I managed to circumvent the problem by placing the query
somewhere else, and let the sheet do a normal extraction.

Thanks

Hi!

In your formula your are testing for an error in a range and if there is one
to return blank. If there is no error, then return the data from that same
range.

However, your description is saying if there is an error in one range then
return data from a completely different range, SI-1, column 4.

You don't need to include the INDEX call inside of ISERROR. You can shorten
your current formula to:

=IF(ISNA(MATCH($A10,'8DBC'!$A$1:$A$500,0)),"",INDE X('8DBC'!$A$1:$BG$500,MATCH($A10,'8DBC'!$A$1:$A$50 0,0),49))
