The IFNA function evaluates a value. If the value is an #N/A error, return the specified value.
Parts of an IFNA function
IFNA(value, value_if_na)
| Part | Description |
value |
Required. The value to check if it is a #N/A error. |
value_if_na |
Required. The value to return if the first argument is an #N/A error. |
Sample formulas
IFNA(205, “Na error”)
IFNA(#N/A, “Na error”)
Notes
- If value or value_if_na is an empty cell, IFNA treats the cell’s value as an empty string (“”).
- If value is a range reference, IFNA returns an array formula result with one entry for in-the-range reference.
