Date format when using a vlookup

R

Rob Laman

I am using a vlookup to pull a column of dates into another workbook.
However, in some cases the sheet that I pull the date from has a blank in the
date column which then populates my vlookup column with a zero value.
Because the destination column is formatted as a date, I end up with a
01/00/00 value. Is there a quick and easy way to eliminate this; I'd like to
see the blank pulled forward so that if there is no date listed in the source
file the destination file is also blank.

Thanks in advance,
Rob

Thanks Dave. My struggle was that I also have some nesting going on to
eliminate some errors for items that aren't on the source file. I was
missing an extra IF function - the scaled down version below helped to make
it clearer.

Thanks again,
Rob
