Default Conditional based on error


How do I make the background color of a1 be red if the value of v1 is
“#N/A”?

Thanks for your help.

You could use ISERROR( ) instead of ISNA( )

....

If you mean all errors, use ISERROR. If you mean other than #N/A, use
ISERR. If you mean a particular error other than #N/A (actually this
could also be used for #N/A), e.g., #VALUE!, use
COUNT(1/(ERROR.TYPE(x)=3)) or COUNTIF(x,"#VALUE!").
