My index statement returns a value of #N/A or 0 for unmatched records. Can something be added to my formula below that will return a "blank" for unmatched items?

INDEX(SHEET2!$E$3:$E$10,MATCH(SHEET1!$A$1:$A$30,SHEET2!$A$1:$A:$30,0))

Many, many thanks!

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.

If on Excel 2007 or beyond...
Code:
=IFERROR(INDEX(SHEET2!$E$3:$E$10,
  MATCH(SHEET1!$A$1:$A$30,SHEET2!$A$1:$A:$30,0)),"")

Otherwise:
Code:
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(SHEET1!$A$1:$A$30,SHEET2!$A$1:$A:$30,0)),
   INDEX(SHEET2!$E$3:$E$10,
      MATCH(SHEET1!$A$1:$A$30,SHEET2!$A$1:$A:$30,0)),"")

Try

=IF(ISNA(MATCH(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$30,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$30,0)),"",INDEX(Sheet2!$E$3:$E$10,MATCH(Sheet1!$A$1:$A$30,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$30,0)))
