I am using:
=TEXTJOIN(", ",,INDEX(SMALL(MODE.MULT(F15:F23),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&COUNT(MODE.MULT(F15:F23))))),0))
To find multiple modes in a set of data. When there is no mode I get #N/A as an answer.
Is there a way to adjust the formula to show “no mode” without the quotation marks of course?
When there is no mode my students think that the mode is 0 when there is no mode. I want them to understand that 0 and no mode are not the same think. Thanks for all the help. If there is an easier way to do this am open to it.
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.

Try wrapping your formula in an IFERROR function call and use "No Mode" as the second argument.

I always tell my students that "if you know what you are doing then everything is easy".
I knew there was an easy way to do this, I just didn't know it. Thank You, again for your help. Simple so simple!!!
