Default #N/A

Hello from Steved

The below formula gives me #N/A if there is no value in
the cell. Could you please tell how I can make the cell
blank, until a value is added.

=INDEX('Audit Team'!$A$1:$C$2000, MATCH(E2:E2001,'Audit
Team'!$A$1:$A$2000,), MATCH("Surname",'Audit Team'!
$A$1:$C$1,))

Thankyou.

Hi Steved!

=IF(ISNA(INDEX('Audit Team'!$A$1:$C$2000, MATCH(E2:E2001,'Audit
Team'!$A$1:$A$2000,), MATCH("Surname",'Audit Team'!
$A$1:$C$1,)),"",INDEX('Audit Team'!$A$1:$C$2000, MATCH(E2:E2001,'Audit
Team'!$A$1:$A$2000,), MATCH("Surname",'Audit Team'!
$A$1:$C$1,)))

IOW you use a standard construct:

=IF(ISNA(YourFormula),"",YourFormula)

You had a few redundant commas in there, so see how this works:

=IF(ISNA(MATCH(E2:E2001,'Audit Team'!$A$1:$A$2000)),"",INDEX('Audit
Team'!$A$1:$C$2000, MATCH(E2:E2001,'Audit Team'!$A$1:$A$2000),
MATCH("Surname",'Audit Team'!$A$1:$C$1)))

Hi Steved!

Try deleting the "" and re-entering them. I find that if

I copy and
paste formulas there are occasions when the "" are

interpreted wrong /
differently.
