I am getting the result of "0" when there is data in row 20 that needs to be
comming through instead. for instance

Sheet 3-16
A2 V20
Piper 8155907568

Sheet 3-9

A2 V20
Piper "blank"

New Sheet

A2 V20
Piper "0"

(when stating the formula as you
proposed)=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A2,'3-16'!$L$2:$BF$1538,20,FALSE)),VLOOKUP(A2,'3-9'!$L$2:$BF$1498,20,FALSE),0)
Please help.

Hello,

The stated formula seems to be working like this :
if (ISNA(first_vlookup);2nd_vlookup; 0)
A test is performed with the first vlookup - the one which looks for
the value in A2 in the first column of the specified range ('3-16'!$L
$2:$BF$1538) - :
- if it does not find a matching value , the vlookup returns #N/A and
the IF statement then returns 0
- else the vlookup does not return #N/A and goes to the 2nd vlookup
(test another block looking a matching value for A2 ) .

Does it match with the data in your file ?

Hope this helps
