errors in worksheet functions
I have 3 worksheet fuctions that show errors eg:
=AVERAGE(LARGE(Z32:Z36,{1,2,3,4,5})) returns #NUM! when cell "Z" is blank =SMALL(AE32:AE300,2) returns #NUM! when cell "AE" is blank =VLOOKUP(AH39,AE32:AG300,3,FALSE) returns #NUM! when cells "AH" contains #NUM! ,"AE" is blank , "AG" is a number (2) can some one tell me how to turn #NUM! into a blank cell ? Please. Thank you all regards bill gras -- bill gras |
From my experimentation, you must mean when COLUMN Z is blank; actually when
the range has less than 5 numerical values. I assume you really have a larger range otherwise why the LARGE sine Z32:Z36 has only 5 values! Try this =IF(COUNT(Z32:Z36),AVERAGE(LARGE(Z32:Z36,{1,2,3,4, 5})) ,"Not enough") -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "bill gras" wrote in message ...

That should be
=IF(COUNT(Z32:Z36)=5,AVERAGE(LARGE(Z32:Z36,{1,2,3 ,4,5})) ,"Not enough") -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "Bernard Liengme" wrote in message ...

Hi Bernard
Yes I ment colums insted of cells in all 3 formulas The formula you gave me works perfect thank you for that. Can you do something with the other 2 functions ?

Just mimic the first one.
=IF(COUNT(AE32:AE300)=2,SMALL(AE32:AE300,2)."TOO FEW") =if(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(AH39,AE32:AG300,3,FALSE)),"SOM ETHING WRONG",=VLOOKUP(AH39,AE32:AG300,3,FALSE)) or =if(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(AH39,AE32:AG300,3,FALSE)),"",V LOOKUP(AH39,AE32:AG300,3,FALSE)) -- Bernard V Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email "bill gras" wrote in message ...
