can anybody spot the error(s) in this formula? I'm trying to to a lookup to find a match on both the H and G columns with two columns on the DMB' F & T' tab, and return what is in column R if there is a match, or return nothing at all if there isn't.

Any help is much appreciated.


=if(iserror(vlookup(H19&G19,'DMB F & T'!'$A:$S,18,FALSE)),"",(vlookup(H19&G19,'DMB F & T'!'$A:$S,18,FALSE)))
 
I'm using Excel 2007, and the data type would be text; either the letter L, or M, or nothing. I'd prefer that if column R contains a blank, that the return also be blank. Is this even possible, or should I just filter the 0's at the end and delete them?
Try it like this...

=IFERROR(T(VLOOKUP(H19&G19,'DMB F & T'!'$A:$S,18,0)),"")

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
