    LOOKUP formula change

    Hi all, I am working to utalize LOOKUP formula below and was wondering if anyone would know how would I be able to change the below formula to do below 2 actions. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks so much!

    1) whatever the result is to add +1. So if it finds 3, then it would be 4

    2) if there is no match to leave the cell blank. currently it generates a 0. I tried to change 0 in below formula to """"" but would not work for some reason...

    Hi,

    You could simplify the formula considerably by adding a key column to the 'previous day' sheet that concatenated the three criteria columns into one.
    Good luck.

    getting Object-defined error on the formula.... Does it need set of quotations around +1?

    I plan to use concatenate, on my next worksheet. this option just seems to be very flexible.. but concatenate is on my to do list

    No - remove the ) before the + 1 - typo on my part.

    This may be flexible but concatenation will be much more efficient.
