Hello,
in an Excel file, I use the VLOOKUP function to copy a row of information corresponding to the selection I make in the first cell of the row, from a dropdown list.
To be clearer, I have a list of names (column A) and various pieces of information for each name (columns B, C, D...).
In one cell, I have a dropdown list where I can select any name. And with the VLOOKUP function, I automatically display the information corresponding to the selected name in the cells to the right.
The problem: when a cell containing information is empty, the VLOOKUP function returns a value of "0". And therefore, displays "0" in the cell.
I would like it to display nothing in that case.
How can I do that?
Thanks to the community.
