date error
 

hi
i have 2 problem.
1) iam using a vlookup formula, but when there is no value in the cell the
cell shows the ( 0 for date and jan for month) 0-jan. but i want to be 0
instead of the 0-jan, why its happening,

2) i have a database upto 2000 subscriber paying monthly sub. some customer
pays twice in month. i used vlookup formula . it shows only one date , is
there possible to show all the date in one cell, so i can know how many times
that customer paid the subs in these month. if instead if vlookup i used the
sumif formula its add the date and i got the wrong date.

so pls help.
regards

date error
 

1-
Try something like IF(VLOOKUP(....)=0;"";VLOOKUP(....))

2-
I don't know if you can show all the dates in one cell but you can identify
the customer that pays twice using SUMPRODUCT. Something like this:

=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$5:$A$104=$A6);--($B$5:$B$104=$B6))1
where column A has the month and column B has the name of customer and you
can put this formula in C6. It will show if the customer in B6 paid twice in
the same month of A6
