    Nested If Statement - ISNA issue

    For some reason I'm drawing a blank (mental blank). Trying to resolve my #N/A issue and normally I firgure it out, but alas, I'm slightly brain dead this morning.

    Current formula: =IF(VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)<IN!$B$2,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)+365,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE))

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Maybe more coffee will hep this morning!!

    This is probably because your 1st vlookup cannot find what you are looking for. Wrap the entire thing in ISERROR()
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Try it like this:

    =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)),"error message", your_exisiting_formula )

    Don't forget the bracket at the end.

    Hope this helps.

    Re: Nested If Statement - ISNA issue

    I'm writing it like so :=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)<IN!$B$2,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)+365,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)<IN!$B$2,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)+365,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE))

    However, it's not liking the +365 which is part of my original If statement so.... issue in the head.

    That is not what I suggested. Try it like this:

    =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)),"error message", IF(VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)<IN!$B$2,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)+365,VLOOKUP(A4,'MW Schedule'!P:AQ,28,FALSE)))

    Change "error message" for what you want to see if there is no exact match.

    Hope this helps.
