I am using the following formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX('Cleaned Post'!W:W,MATCH(Combined!$C2,'Cleaned Post'!$C:$C,0))," ")
This formula is working beautifully, except that for blank cells, it's returning "0". I would like blank cells to be return as blank.
Specifically, this is what I have
Sheet 1 (entitled Cleaned Post)
Name Email Age Gender Task #1
Andrew [email protected] 18 1 80
Jason [email protected] 20 1 95
Judy [email protected] 18 2 __
Jack [email protected] 24 1 65
Sheet 2 (entitled Combined) - What I'm getting
Email Task#1
[email protected] 80
[email protected] 95
[email protected] 0
[email protected] 65
Sheet 2 (entitled Combined) - What I want
Email Task#1
[email protected] 80
[email protected] 95
[email protected] __
[email protected] 65
What do I need to do to adjust this formula?
What sort of values is your formula returning? If they are text values it's sufficient to concatenate a "null string" to your INDEX/MATCH formula like this:
=IFERROR(INDEX('Cleaned Post'!W:W,MATCH(Combined!$C2,'Cleaned Post'!$C:$C,0))&"","")
That also works for numbers except it will convert them to text so if you don't want that you can try this version:
=IFERROR(IF(INDEX('Cleaned Post'!W:W,MATCH(Combined!$C2,'Cleaned Post'!$C:$C,0))="","",INDEX('Cleaned Post'!W:W,MATCH(Combined!$C2,'Cleaned Post'!$C:$C,0))),"")
