    If cells are empty in a row then show "Error"

    Hey experts!

    I am from India and would really appreciate if anyone could help me out.

    I have attached the screenshot of my excel file.

    So i enter the product code in Range B11:B24 and i get the other relavant details except the Amount Column as prices are different for different customers.

    I manually enter the amount .

    I was looking for something through which if a user misses out on the amount column then Q36 shows "error"

    Because many a times I have forgotten to type the amount.


    Example :

    I have filled In B11, B12 an B13 with codes.
    However i enter the amount of only B12 and B13.
    Thus, I want it to show error in Q36 because i have missed out on entering amount of B11


    Please help me out.

    Thank You

    Hey Peterrc.

    Trust you are well.

    Q34 has the formulae =SUM(Q11:Q31)
    Q36 if the sum of all the numbers in the range Q11:Q31 + Q35(Round Off)

    Forumulae in Q36 is =SUM(Q34:Q35)

    Hey thanks .

    But if there no other way to show"Error" in case i miss out to enter the amount column?

    Re: If cells are empty in a row then show "Error"

    Hi anilanilpatni,

    In addition to protonLeah's CF formula (nice one!) I have amended the formula in Q35 (previously Q34).
    The formula refers to 2 cells (containing formulas) in row 33 which I have hidden.
    Please see attached.
    Let me know if this works for you.

    Regards

    peterrc
