Have DGET return Null instead of #Value!
 

Hi,

I have a column of values that I retrieve from a database based on
dates. It will always try to retrieve an entire week (Sun - Sat) at a
time. This is done for charting purposes. My problem is that if it's
only Wednesday, the chart will show 0's for thurs, fri, and sat b/c the
DGET function can't find the values for those days (because they haven't
been calculated yet). So, I either need to have the DGET function
return those days as null values, or have the chart not graph the cells
that have #VALUE! in them. Any ideas???

Thanks for the help,

Matt

Try this - should insert a 0 when DGet would return either #Value or #Num
errors
=IF(IsErr(DGet(...),0,DGet(...)))

Have DGET return Null instead of #Value!
 

Thanks for the help, I'm still having a problem with it though. This is
what I have for the eqation:
=If(ISERR(DGET(RawData!$A$7:$E$6503,RawData!$E$7,A 55:B56),0,DGET(RawData!$A$7:$E$6503,RawData!$E$7,A 55:B56))).
The problem seems to be with the ,0,. Any suggestions how this can be
fixed?

Thanks again,

Matt

Problem is with the closing parenthesis - you need 2 in front of the comma
before the 0, and only 2 at the end of the whole thing.

Should look like this:
=If(ISERR(DGET(RawData!$A$7:$E$6503,RawData!$E$7,A 55:B56)),0,DGET(RawData!$A$7:$E$6503,RawData!$E$7, A55:B56))
