Avoid #N/A In Vlookup
Feb 22, 2008
I know how to avoid getting the #N/A in a vlookup, but I have found situations where I have data matches and still get #N/A. For instance, I am looking up an item number (which contains numbers and letters) on one tab to find corresponding info on another tab. I've verified that the item number is indeed in the lookup range but I still get the #N/A. If I copy and paste the item number over the same item number in the lookup range then it works. However, I don't want to do this for each item number.

I have been reading and studying up on everything I can get my hands on with excel, and today I read the golden rules sticky. One of them confused me, so I need to understand, so I can follow it. "Don't Nest 2 Lookups To Avoid #N/A! Allow it to Occur and Reference Like: =IF(ISNA(A1),0,A1) and Hide the Lookup Column." I need cells to be empty instead of returning #N/A! So I nested using the ISNA. I do not understand the formula example above and hiding the lookup column. Here is the formula I have in one of the cells: How do I change it, so it returns an empty value instead of #n/a without nesting the lookup =IF(ISNA(IF($I$8="Student",((VLOOKUP($J$8,'Exit Card Data.xls'!Card1_1,2,FALSE)))/D33,IF($I$8="Class",(HLOOKUP($J$8,'Exit Card Data.xls'!Card1_1,28,FALSE))))),"",(IF($I$8="Student",((VLOOKUP($J$8,'Exit Card Data.xls'!Card1_1,2,FALSE)))/D33,IF($I$8="Class",(HLOOKUP($J$8,'Exit Card Data.xls'!Card1_1,28,FALSE))))))
Also I really need the cell to be empty if nothing has been entered in I8 or J8, but right now it returns FALSE. For what I am doing, it is important that the cell is empty if no data can be found.

I'm havin' a chart for interest, instalments and so on;
Interest [X%] Loan [Z crowns/dollars]
Loantime [Y years] Instalment [formula, which is "=Z/Y/12"]for each month.
Year, Month, Loan(left), Instalment, Total payment
1, Januari, =Z, =Instalment (constant), =Interest+Instalment
Month, Loan(left), Interest
Februari, =above-Instalment, =X%*Loan(left)/12 (rent is divided per year),
Instalment, Total payment
Constant, =rent+Instalment
and so on... as long as you want ^^ (it's quite messy, but try :D)
The question is as follows "What would a loan of 900'000kr with 9% interest rate totally cost over 30 years?"
[use "IF" to avoid getting anything written after the loan expires]
The question itself can be easily solved by just dragging the formulas down to 30 years and fill in the % and loan etc. But what I do not understand is the "IF" question. I'm supposed to use the IF function to instantly show the cost of the loan (total rent payment) after the 30 years? That's how I understood it. In that case... how do I do that? ^^

=AVERAGE(IF(A:A=B6,IF(C:C>0,C:C)))
"A" is a duplicated rep field and "B" is unique rep IDs and "C" is a sum of product types purchased. I'm averaging the number of product types sold by each rep.
I need to modify it to remove the #DIV/0! error it generates. It calculates just fine by row (with the error on some rows), but when I use that calculated field as an element in another formula, the #DIV/0! blows up the second formula. I tried a second IF function tied to the sales field "D" but I don't think I nested it right.

Transferring Multiple Data from separate worksheet without duplicating"
As you can see i am looking for information in column d (Letter) and getting the result to show from column B (number) using the formula in Column G (result 1).
The problem i am having is that if i try to copy or drag the formula down into Result 2 i just get the same answer.
Is there any way for the next cell down to ignore the previous result?

I've attached an example of what I am trying to achieve and an explanation as well. I'm trying to avoid the use of a macro as I don't understand them and I will need to modify the sheet later on which could cause problems. However, if a macro is the only solution, then I will have to make due with one.

I have a formulas in Sheet1 linked to other sheets, but I have only formula and there are no sheets ( eg: in sheet 1 A1 =Data!A1) where as there is no sheet called Data. I have a macro to import this sheets from a different file.
The problem I am facing is, after importing the sheets, the formula still shows #REF but if I do double click the cell or press F2 and then "Enter" the value appears. I have about 1200 formulas in this sheets.

I have attached a simple example worksheet showing what I am trying to do. I have a contract start date, a contract finish date, a notice period and a standard review period. To get a date when I should start my contract review I do the following: (finish date-notice period)- review period.
This is fine when the finish date is populated but if it isn't it results in a negative number. What I want to achieve is if there is not a finish date then leave the review date cell blank.

I am programming VBA for Excel and I have a problem with automatic popup messages. I would like to answer Excel's request "Selection contains more than one value. If cells are merged, only the first entry will remain" with OK. The cells are sorted, so they contain the same value, hence I want to merge them. Of course I could work around and delete every entry except for the first before merging, but I would like to know, how to answer this popup automatically, so that the user does not get to see it.

I have a workbook where everything is controlled from a single worksheet that I named "Start".
In the "Start" worksheet I have instructions and one command button. When this button is clicked, it will start the VBA code. The code will basically show a couple of userforms where the user will input some information and after the user clicks on a button on the last userform, the code will generate new worksheet and present the results in that new worksheet.
The user could do this as many times as he wants, each time creating a new worksheet or overwriting in an existing worksheet (except the "Start" worksheet). The user is able to delete any worksheets he want.
I need to write a code so that if the user tries to delete the "Start" worksheet, it will not let him/her because then there is no worksheet where I have the button to click to start the VBA code.
I tried protecting the workbook, but then it does not allow to add new worksheets either.

which seems to work fine if there's data in the range to compute. If there isn't it throws a DIV/0 error at me. How can I modify the above to
Be blank if there's no data to display in the range, therefore avoiding a div/0 error.

I'm trying to generate an inventory outlook/forecast which will show inventory levels for the Monday of every week for 10 weeks. I start with an on-hand stock. Sometime during the course of those 10 weeks there will be an inventory replenishment that will come in. The inventory outlook is generated by simply taking on-hand inventory + replenishment - depletion. I want to make sure that when I account for inventory replenishment on a certain date, I'm counting it only once on the Monday that will follow immediately, and not on subsequent Mondays. I can only think of something like IF(Date>Replenishment Date,Add Replenishment amount,0) type thing, but that would double count on all following Mondays.
I've attached a screen shot with an example. In this example, I'm starting with 50,000 units of inventory. I have the depletion outlook provided by date. On 4/24/2014 I get a replenishment of 25,000 units (which would therefore be accounted for on 4/28/2014, and not beyond that date).
