Hi All,

I have a cells with a formula that references a table, =HLOOKUP($D$6,Benefits,2,FALSE)


Not all cells are used all the time and appear with #N/A. I want to maintain the formula, but if it returns #N/A I want cell to appear blank. If I can do this with conditional formatting that would be great. Then I won't have to change each cell's formula.

Thanks so much for your help.
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Try:

Excel 2003 or older:
=IF(ISERROR(HLOOKUP($D$6,Benefits,2,FALSE)),"",HLOOKUP($D$6,Benefits,2,FALSE))

Excel 2007 or newer:
=IFERROR(HLOOKUP($D$6,Benefits,2,FALSE),"")

Thank You!

Is there a way to make #N/A's blank with conditional formatting? or a way to easily change each formula to =IFERROR(HLOOKUP($D$6,Benefits,2,FALSE),"")?

I already filled majority of worksheet out with just the HLookup
