Hi,

Can someone please tell me why this formula is not working?

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$T9999,20,$T1:$T9999),0,(VLOOKUP($A2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$T9999,20,$T1:$T9999))))
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

Hi,

Try

Code:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$T9999,20,0),0,(VLOOKUP($A2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$T9999,20,0))))

Can you tell us why you have a fourth argument of $T1:$T9999 inside your VLOOKUPs?

No, it still doesnt like it - it is saying that the ,0, in the middle is causing the error???:confused:

This should work...

Code:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A$2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$T9999,20,0)),0,VLOOKUP($A$2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$T9999,20,0))

Try:
=IF(ISERROR(MATCH($A2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$A9999,0)),0,INDEX('Hours and Headcount'!$T1:$T9999,MATCH($A2,'Hours and Headcount'!$A1:$A9999,0)))
