=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AS:AS,'Data'!B:G,6,FALSE),"")
This formula outputs value 0 when there is no item to vlookup in column AS:AS, How do I avoid the 0, to output only blank?
Try passing in NA if the cell value be missing:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(IF(AS:AS="",NA(),AS:AS),'Data'!B:G,6,FALSE),"")
The idea here is that empty cells would pass #N/A to VLOOKUP thereby causing an error, and causing the error message to print (in your case you have chosen empty string).
A formula will always output 0 from a blank cell.
You can fix it by:
Use cell formatting such as 0;-0;;#
Use =T(...) if you're expecting text
I'd advise you to use a single cell as a lookup value and the specific range for your lookup array so that there's no possibility of the formula returning zero unless that's a valid result from your table, e.g. in row 2 copied down if required
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(AS2,'Data'!B$2:G$100,6,FALSE),"")

i have a row with three cell each one contains formula and all formula result is blank, my question how can i use if formula to have the following result?
- in case all 3 cell blank ---> (0)
in case one or two cell have value (not blank) ---> (33)
Regards,
Use:
=IF(OR(LEN(A1:C1)>0),33,0)
Not 0 or Not ""?
A blank cell is a cell that doesn't contain anything. Since there is
a formula in those cells, you are probably asking if the value is 0
or "". Maybe both.
If you mean blank as in value 0:
If you will treat an error value as a value then use the following:
=IFERROR(IF(AND(A1=0,B1=0,C1=0),0,33),33)
Otherwise use the following:
=IFERROR(IF(AND(A1=0,B1=0,C1=0),0,33),0)
or e.g.
=IFERROR(IF(SUM(A1:C1)=0,0,33),0)
If you mean blank as in value "":
If you will treat an error value as a value then use the following
=IFERROR(IF(AND(A1="",B1="",C1=""),0,33),33)
Otherwise use the following:
=IFERROR(IF(AND(A1="",B1="",C1=""),0,33),0)
or e.g.
=IFERROR(IF(TEXTJOIN("",,A1:C1)="",0,33),0)
There are many other solutions
I want to multiple three cell values after subtract from 100%,I used product function and also tried aggregate function.i get error when if one of cell is blank.need subtract c cloumns value f colum n value and i column value from 100% then multiple.please note sometimes one of c ,f of i values can be blank.
As #BigBen stated, the only way you get this error is if there is a formula that returns a null string or space in the field.
To get around that we just need to use IFERROR to deal with the resulting error:
=PRODUCT(IFERROR(1-CHOOSE({1,2,3},C3,F3,I3),1))
Depending on ones version of Excel this may need to be confirmed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter instead of Enter when exiting edit mode.
Or since there is only three just use three IFERRORs and multiply the results:
=IFERROR(1-C3,1)*IFERROR(1-F3,1)*IFERROR(1-I3,1)
This is just a normal formula.
A third option is to return 0 instead of "" in your original formula:
=IFERROR(E3/D3,0)
Then format the cell %;%;; and it will hide the 0
I have the following formula to make a unique list from column plant in table 15:
{=IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant];MATCH(0;COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2;Tabel15[Plant]);0));"")}
This formula is working, but when there is just 1 value in column plant the formula gives a value of 0. This is wrong because it should return the value.
Does anyone know how I can adapt this formula to make it work?
I wanted to change it to this:
{=IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[plant])>0;INDEX(Tabel15[Plant];MATCH(0;COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2;Tabel15[Plant]);0));Kopie - datablad$G$2)}
But it doesn't work either.
Good mock example. Try and see if this works:
The formula counts the unique cells against another list. The unique list expects to take the first row, no matter what. It also expects you to have more than one value in your duplicate list. If it doesn't you can't compare since it expect duplicates and it throws an error, #N/A. This is mask as blank cell since it's wrapped in IFERROR:
"Unique formula" = IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF($Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),"")
To solve this we check how many values it exist in our duplicate list:
=IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,... "Unique formula" ... ,Tabel15[Plant]) //***//
This will give us this result.
Then you probably don't want duplicates...
So we need to check if previous rows contain any of the values the formula would return.
The VLOOKUP formula do that for us, and as lookup value we use the formula above //***// and lookup range will be our current column: $Q$1:Q2. NOTICE this is a dynamic range so Q2 is relative reference (no $).
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF($Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),""),Tabel15[Plant]),$Q$1:Q2,1,FALSE))
So the Final result we need to apply is this in Cell Q3:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),""),Tabel15[Plant]),Analyses!$Q$1:Q2,1,FALSE)),IF(COUNTA(Tabel15[Plant])>1,IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$1:Q2,Tabel15[Plant]), 0)),""),Tabel15[Plant]),"")
The macro error can be ignored by:
If Not IsError(Sheets("Hulpblad").Range("B6").Value) Then
t = Sheets("Hulpblad").Range("B6").Value
'Code...
End If
there is no problem in your formula, it is just telling that there are blanks in the range, 0 means blank. the formula is treating the blank as a value and also considering it in the unique value calculations.
If you want to remove 0 you can just insert an if over your formula to remove it. like
=if(formula = 0, "", formula)
or in orignal form
=IF( (IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2,Tabel15[Plant]),0)),""))=0,"",IFERROR(INDEX(Tabel15[Plant],MATCH(0,COUNTIF(Analyses!$Q$2:$Q2,Tabel15[Plant]),0)),""))
or go in the cell formatting and change the format to display 0 as a dash.
sometimes blank is also used as error checking, you can apply such formulae as well to check how many are blank, maybe that would someday be used to check any data entry problems.
I am using the formula:
=(Cost!C8)
to get values from another sheet using named ranges. I want this to only show a value if there is a value in the corresponding cell of the other sheet, however, this formula returns a value of 0 even if the cell on the other sheet is empty. How can I make it so that the formula returns nothing (is blank) when the cell it refers to is empty?

There are a number of ways to prevent zero's from showing when you refer to a blank cell.
The easiest if probably an IF statement. If your formula is:
=(Cost!C8)
...use:
=IF(Cost!C8="","",Cost!C8)
Similarly you could show a default value, or a label like <No Data> with a variation:
=IF(Cost!C8="","<No Data>",Cost!C8)
Note that Cost!C8 is not a Named Range; it's a cell reference, referring to another worksheet.
More Information:
Office Support : Create conditional formulas
TechRepublic : Three ways to hide zero values in an Excel sheet
Use,
=Cost!C8&""
'alternate for Qty
=TEXT(Cost!C8, "[<>0]0;;;")
'alternate for currency
=TEXT(Cost!C8, "[<>0]$ 0.00;;;")
'alternate for text items
=TEXT(Cost!C8, ";;;#")
Granted, this actually converts your true numbers to text-that-looks-like-a-number and that is generally a practice to be avoided but they will be converted back to true numbers through any maths operation like addition or multiplication.
A blank cell is considered numeric by nature. This can be tested with =ISNUMBER(<blank_cell>). The closest thing to a blank number is zero so you are returning those as the value of the blank cells you are linking to.
Use ISBLANK with IF
=IF(ISBLANK(Cost!C8),"",Cost!C8)
If you just want it to not be visible, you might consider using conditional formatting to make the text color white when the cell is equal to 0. This way the actual value remains 0 so it won't break downstream formulas.
A nice, slightly simpler, alternative is to concatenate the named range with an empty string.
=MyRange --> 0
=""&MyRange --> ""
This is equivalent to TEXT(MyRange) more concise than IF(ISBLANK(MyRange), "", MyRange)
I've been struggling with this for a while now, i use a Sumifs in excel to evaluate over a range of data,
My problem is that it returns the blank cells as zeros instead of blank,
is there a way to make the cell return as blank when looking at multiple ranges,
The above link is what the data looks like and the below link is what the sumifs returns, i need it to return blanks where the data is blank instead of zero,
The equation i am using is =SUMIFS(Sheet1!C:C;Sheet1!$A:$A;Sheet2!$A2;Sheet1!$B:$B;Sheet2!$B2) where sheet 1 is the sheet with the data and sheet 2 is the table where the sumifs evaluates to,
Also if the value is blank in the data it must return blank, but if it is zero in the data it must return as a zero.
Please someone help me.
You can use IF condition to check if the total is zero.
=IF(SUMIFS(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!$A:$A,Sheet2!$A2,Sheet1!$B:$B,Sheet2!$B2)=0,"",SUMIFS(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!$A:$A,Sheet2!$A2,Sheet1!$B:$B,Sheet2!$B2))
