Can I use an IS function with Vlookup
I am trying to write a formula that says If the Vlookup returns NA, then plus
a particular cell, otherwise return the vlookup value. Can this be done. I've writen it as IF(isna(vlookup,etc.),+a1,(vlookup,etc) Any Ideas as to why it dosen't work.

Can I use an IS function with Vlookup
Remember the FALSE in VLOOKUP():
In A1 thru B3: 1 rover 2 queeny 3 mickey and in C1: 2 Then =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(C1,A1:B3,2,FALSE)),A1,VLOOKUP(C1, A1:B3,2)) returns queeny, but put 22 in C1 and the same formula returns 1 -- Gary''s Student - gsnu200798 "JJ in LA" wrote: I am trying to write a formula that says If the Vlookup returns NA, then plus a particular cell, otherwise return the vlookup value.
