    IF Function

    Hi,
    I want to use an IF function to examine the contents of a cell and if the cells contains a numeric value then do something else do something else. How do I check if something is numeric?

    Thanks
    Simon

    Use the ISNUMBER() function within your IF() function.

    Like this:

    =IF(ISNUMBER(A1),A1,"")

    This will result in the value of A1 if it's numeric but blank ("") if it's not.
