Formula not working in excel 2007

[Rao Ratan Singh]

Sir,

Namaskar! I i just installed office 2007 and some formula is not working and
retruning #N/A and some formula is returning 0 value.

This formula is returing #N/A

=IF(ISBLANK($C1063),"",IF(VLOOKUP($C1063,Inventory_List,9,0)<0,"INVALID
SALE",VLOOKUP($C1063,Inventory_List,9,0)))



and this is returning 0 vlaue

=IF($C1067="","",IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($C1067,Inventory_List,4,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP($C1067,Inventory_List,4,FALSE)))



what should i change in excel 2007 or should i unstall office 2007



Hope you will soon solve my problem.

For your first formula, this portion seems suspect:
IF(VLOOKUP($C1063,Inventory_List,9,0) You are telling Excel to look 0
columns to the right. I think that number has to be at least 1.

For your second formula, take a look at the new IFERROR function in
Excel 2007; it will simplify your formula.

The 9 represents the column in Inventory_list to be returned.

0 (or False) in that 4th parm means that there has to be an exact match between
what's in C1063 and the first column of Inventory_List.

I'd review the notes for troubleshooting =vlookup() formulas from Debra
