    Hiding rows in VLOOKUP sheet, based on null values

    Hi

    I have created a spreadsheet from a master using vlookup. I want to be able to hide rows which contain a null value (NA) in column B (sample attached). Is there a formula I can use which won't interfere with the vlookup or do I need to hide the rows individually? I tried filtering but that only filtered the cell and not the whole row.

    As you can guess, I know very little about Excel!

    Thanks in advance

    Urch. Ok thanks, can see that now. Was misled by the fact that the vlookup appears to have re-sorted some of the columns in my main sheet. Will have to go and play with that and see if I can fix that first. I may be back...

    Ok, all sorted. The filter wasn't messing things up, I was! Fixed the vlookup formula and everything works. Thanks Martin
