Clear Cells with #N/A

The following is the code I am using:

Sub DailySchedUpdate()
Dim z As Long, e As Long
z = Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Row
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-12
For e = 6 To z

If Cells(e, 1) > 0 Then
Cells(1, 6) = "=VLOOKUP(d" & e & ",'L:\Transfer\Fabrication Department\Data Base\[Fabrication Part Breakdown.xls]Router Breakdown'!$A$2:$G$10000,1,false)"
Cells(e, 6) = Cells(1, 6)
Else
Cells(e, 6) = ""
End If
Next e

Code is working but I need all Cells that yield #N/A cleared. I can't just include "" within the formula due to it crashing another formula. What code can I add to clear the contents of every cell that yields #N/A after running?

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.

Clear? Do you mean like remove the formula from the cell? If so, just execute this line of code...

Columns("F").SpecialCells(xlFormulas, xlErrors).Clear

No, I would like for it to clear all cells with the output "#N/A"
I can blank the cell by including "" within the formula but I need to contents cleared because the cell is not truly empty and the output crashes another formula.

You cannot do that with a formula. You will have to let the error show from your formula and then either use VBA code like I posted in Message #2 to clear the cell.

Put the line of code I posted in Message #2 after the "Next e" statement in the code you posted in Message #1.

Using the code you have supplied the cell values still yield #N/A.
The way my code is running all that remains in the cells once complete is the data I want or #N/A. The formula used in the code is not there.
Does this help?

Yes, that helps. Try using this line of code instead of what I posted earlier...

Columns("F").SpecialCells(xlConstants, xlErrors).Clear
