[AccessD] OT: Excel Function - VLOOKUP

I usually use iserror() which is more comprehensive than ISNA()
ex
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A6,5,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP($A6,5,FALSE))

Subject: [AccessD] OT: Excel Function - VLOOKUP


Hi All,

I have an Excel question.

The VLOOKUP function returns "#N/A" if it cannot find a matching value.
I was trying to wrap the VLOOKUP function in an IF statement to test if
it returns #N/A so I could output a zero instead of #N/A.

Does anyone know exactly what value to test for? I tried "#N/A", '#N/A',
#N/A, and FALSE but none these worked.

Thanks,
