    Maybe IFNA()?

    The easiest method is to use the IFERROR function. IFERROR will trap ALL errors.

    If you only want to trap #N/A errors then there are a couple of options depending on what version of Excel this has to work in.

    Your profile says you're using Excel 2013.

    It has a new function called IFNA( ). It traps only the #N/A errors.

    =IFNA(your formula here,result if #N/A here)

    =IFNA(INDEX(A1:A5,MATCH(C1,B1:B5,0)),"")
