How To Replace #N/A With No Entry For A VLOOKUP Result
Sep 24, 2009
I have put a VLOOKUP in place for a range of cells. Where the referenced cell has no entry it puts #N/A in the sheet. This is causing me further problems, is there a way to get all entries which equal this to leave the cell blank?
I am using VLOOKUP to find the size of a cam to be installed in a tablet press, based on the product code it will be running.
The array has two columns: (W) Product Code, (X) Cam Size.
Array: W4:X437
The user selects the Product Code from a drop-down list in cell E5.
The resulting Cam Size is displayed in cell E7. The VLOOKUP works fine.
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(E5,W4:X437,2,FALSE),"")
Occasionally, the cam size has to be updated. The user would then select a new cam size from a drop-down list in cell E9.
I have a "Update Cam Size" command button.
What I need to happen is for the value in E9 to replace the value in the array that is displayed in E7. Obviously, I have to know the location of the cell in the array, but I can't figure that part out. I've tried ADDRESS and MATCH functions, but it comes back with "#N/A" Value not available error.
When I drag my VLOOKUP formula down a column in Excel 2010, the return value copies the formula result from the original VLOOKUP formula result. For example, if the first VLOOKUP returns a value of 0.5, I expect to see 0.5 or 1 in the cell below that one. However, I get 0.5 which is not the expected result for the cell below.
When, I click the fx on the cells below, the expected return values appear in the formula result. After I click OK, the expected formula results updates and now appears in the cell.
I'm not sure what is causing this issue. My computer was updated recently from an old machine to a new one. I have never experienced this issue before.
I would like to look at an array and find the largest number. Once that is found, return the text value that is in column B from that row. For example:
In this example, I would be looking at the array C1:D3. Because the highest value is 7, I want the text "Orange" to be displayed in a new cell such as A5.
To find the largest number, I am using =Large(C1:D3,1). How do I display its' corresponding text value from column B in a new cell?
I have a column of consignment numbers in this location Sheet Name: C NUMBER Reference: C3:C10000
I have an entry field for which people may type their Consignment number in at this location to search for possible match Sheet Name: Query Reference: Cell D10
I would like to be able to allow a portion of the number be typed in to D10 and then have Cell D11 show the full first match from that partial entry. Thank you,
I want to be able to enter a value into a cell (within a specified range) and have it automatically multiply by a set value and overwrite the original entry with the result so making it all happen within one cell. The set value would be another cell on that sheet.
So the range for example is "H17:H74" and the value I want to multiply by is "D8"
Is this possible?
I've looked at another forum but it wasn't working when I wanted to define the set value as a cell.
using the VLOOKUP when it doesnt have the values it needs it returns #N/A however what i need it to return is 0 or possibly just a blank cell.... can this be done without the need for code?
I have a workbook where in Sheet1 Cell A1 is a customer name, and A2:A5 contain parameters for the customer. I would like to be able to input those data to a Vlookup table on Sheet2. (The Vlookup is used to fill values on Sheet3).
I have been trying to create a macro to copy those parameters from sheet1A2:A5 by finding the match for A1 in the Vlookup table in Sheet2 and then copying to the corresponding matching row , A2 pasting into column 3 (on the corresponding row of course), A3 into colum 4, A4 into column 5 and A5 into Column 6.
Been working on this problem for a while, I need to have a vlookup (or other function) return locations based off of a concatenate (for unique identifiers). Only issue is that the concatenate formula creates doubles which returns the same location for each vlookup. I have attached an example file.
Say I need to get values from Column C. VLOOKUP'ed values return the first value, but i need it to move on to the next result if the first one = 0. so I will get
I have a formula that I'm trying to utilize VLookup to determine a specific bonus. The issue I'm having is when looking for the closes match, it is returning the value below where it should because it's rounding down. For example, the string I have reads:
=VLOOKUP(S5,'Rep Daily'!A1:B61,2,TRUE)
The value it's defining is 17.7485, so it's returning the bonus for 17.5 instead of 17.75. Even when I use the =Roundup function, it's showing 17.75 in the cell but the actual value of the cell is 17.7485 so VLookup is returning the lower of the two values.
Hopefully you will be able to help again. Is it possible to do a vlookup that references data on other tabs within the worksheet so that the result of the formula is in the cell not the formula.
So if my vlookup was =vlookup(a2,$a$1:$b$12,3,0) and the result was john smith i want just john smith in the cell. I know about copy and paste values but i was looking for a more automatic way. One that doesn't need intervention.
how to return a blank or null value when the vlookup formula would normally return a #N/A? I am using the False range_lookup argument to get an exact match.
Code: =VLOOKUP((LEFT(C4,6)),'Data from 7500'!$B$16:$G$195,6,TRUE)
And it works great, except that the data returned is off by one row. For example, the correct value for the sample name in B107 is located in G107, but the formula returns the value in cell G106. I've tried changing the TRUE to FALSE and that returns #N/A.

I have used a lookup table to calculate the value in column H as follows, but cannot get it to work
My VLOOKUP formula is displaying in the cell instead of the result. The formula is VLOOKUP(A1, income_codes, 2, FALSE) and in the formula editor the result (00017) is calculated correctly.
However the cell displays =VLOOKUP(A1, income_codes, 2, FALSE) instead of the answer 00017.
My view options are not set to display formulas. The codes are formatted as text in the range income_codes as they start with zeros.
Round Result Used As Vlookup Lookup_value Does Work For 6% in attached spreadsheet. I am an experienced user of Excel and have never come across something I could not solve before but this has stumped me. The issue is now sorted using different formulas but I do not know why the attached has #N/A errors in the Yellow highlighted cells.
I have a formula that calculates a revenue per day by taking total revenue devided by total days, from that I have another cell doing a VLOOKUP on that to find what tier that value falls under almost like a grade book, however I need the division to be rounded up if greater than x.xx5 because when I do the VLOOKUP sometimes it drops the product to the lower tier when I needed it rounded up. example:
I have a vlookup worksheet like described in this thread: [URL] .... This works perfect. I would like to be able to jump to the vlookup result using a hyperlink.
In the thread worksheet the formula in C2 is like =VLOOKUP(A2,INDIRECT("'"&INDEX($G$2:$G$9,MATCH(TRUE,COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&$G$2:$G$9&"'!C2:C100"),A2)>0;0))&"'!C2:D100"),2,0)
In cell D2 I placed the formula (font: webdings ) =IF(C2="","",HYPERLINK("[Workbook1.xls]"&("Sheet2!"&(ADDRESS(MATCH(C2,Sheet2!$D:$D,),4))),"i"))
(Due to the Dutch Excel I use I replaced ";" to ",")
The link works because I hardcoded "Sheet2" into the formula where the result can be found. But it would be much nicer if I didn't had to put the sheetname into this formula.
Is it possible to use range G2:G8 like in the first formula to achieve this? I guess you have to use INDEX and/or INDIRECT but I barely understand the first formula ...
A -> SNO B -> Customer Name C -> Product Name D -> MODEL E -> Quotation Rate I have to retrieve MODEL & Quotation Rate . and also having seperate sheet for each customers say X1 , Y1 , Z1 ( so other sheet names as X1, Y1 & Z1) In X1 sheet , I do have following columns A-> Product Name , b-> Model (as of now limited to 1 per product name) c -> Rate
Now my request is as follows Based on the Column b value in Summary sheet - i have to goto respective sheet and do vlookup for the respective product name and retrieve model and fill it in Column D. I heard i can use INDIRECT function and Vlookup in this junction .
I have a three or four letter abbreviation of a last name in A1. Column C contains a list of Last Names; column D contains a list of corresponding First Names; and column E contains a formula concantenating the First Names and Last Names from columns C & D.
I have the following formula in B1:
=VLOOKUP(A1,C1:E44,3,1)
I am attempting to match up the three or four letter abbreviation with the concatenated list to return the full name (First and Last) in cell B1, however, I'm not getting the desire result. I keep getting the name in the row just above the name I want.
I'm using this formula (thanks to dafan & HalfAce [url] =IF(VLOOKUP($A177,$A$736:$C$787,3,FALSE)=0,"",VLOOKUP($A177,$A$736:$I$787,3,FALSE)) to return the value located in the 3rd column of the range when the value in the 1st column of the range matches the data in A177.
However, there isn't a match for the data in A178 in the range, so the formula returns "#N/A". I would like the cell containing the formula to remain blank in those instances.
