Hi, Sir,
A column of my data has all #N/A for the first few knows, and then followed by good numeric numbers. Can I ask how to find the first row with a proper value?
The column looks like:
#N/A
#N/A
#N/A
...
10.08 -> which row?
20.70

there is a isna formula in excel
you could use something to highlight it
=IF(ISNA(A1),"",A1) or put it in to conditional formatting and make it highligh a different colour
hi BNCOXUK, what is the "..."? is it an actual text? i excluded it & used the 3 N/As & the 2 numbers. try copying this formula & paste into the formula bar:
=MIN(IF(NOT(ISNA(A1:A5)),ROW(A1:A5)))
press CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER to confirm. that's the row number. if you need the actual number, try:
=INDEX(A1:A5,MIN(IF(NOT(ISNA(A1:A5)),ROW(A1:A5))))
same thing. CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER

Say your data is in column A, use the array formula:
=MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(A:A),0)
This must be entered with CNTRL-SHFT-ENTER rather than just the ENTER key.
