I 'm using windows Xp and office XP.
working in ware house section I have to control about 3000 kind of material. I usually use vlookup formula, it is very convenient but unfortunately, sometime data format in sheets automatically change to different type so my formula can not work correctly."#N/A". If I copy vlookup value from table ray it will return correct value. I tried to format vlookup value and the value in table ray in the same type (text, general,number) but my formula still doesn't work. It will take some months to input this data again. Please help me fix this problem.
Many thanks in advance.

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
This should help you to make VLOOKUP return a 0 or a empty string "" instead of #N/A! ?"
Assume that the current formula is
=VLOOKUP(A1,$B$2:$D$100,3,False)
or more condensed
=VLOOKUP(A1,$B$2:$D$100,3,0)
One improved method is
=IF(COUNTIF($B$2:$B$100,A1), VLOOKUP(A1,$B$2:$D$100,3,0),””)
This way the VLOOKUP is only calculated if the value in A1 exists in B2:B100, and therefor, VLOOKUP won’t return a #N/A!
