    Return blank if no exact match or blank is found

    Good day all,

    Struggling to get the formula below to return a blank value if no exact match or a blank cell is found, I've tried =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(valBranch&valDepartment,tblData,4,FALSE) ,"") but still no joy? Any assistance as always is greatly appreciated, thank you & have a great day - Marco

    =VLOOKUP(valBranch&valDepartment,tblData,4,FALSE)

    If the value being returned is a text string, this will do it:

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(valBranch&valDepartment,tblData,4,FALSE)&"", "")
