If empty, then display message

[puiuluipui]

Hi, i need this code to display a message if next or last (when it finds
first empty cell) cell in A1:L1 is empty.

=INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(MONTH(TODAY()),MONTH(A2:L2)-1))
Can this be done?
Thanks!

Can you provide a bit more info. Exactly what data is in the ranges A1:L1 &
A2:L2?

Hi Dan, in A1:L1 i have:
rate 1 rate 2 rate 3 rate 4.........rate 12
in A2:L2 i have
01.01.2009 01.02.2009 01.03.2009 ....01.12.2009

12 rates, 12 month. This is one of the rates. If i have only 7 rates
remaining, but the same range, the code will find an empty cell at some
point. So, i need to display a message.
EX:
this month will display "rate 7" (the last rate)
next month the code will find empty cell after "rate 7" and i neet to
display a message.

Can this be done?
Thanks!

Try the below
=INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2))

If this post helps click Yes

Hi Jacob, i added "+1" to display next rate, and i changed ranges.
A1:L1= rates
A3:L3= billings nr
Your code now: =INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A3:L3)+1)

All i need is this code to display a message if in A1:L1 finds an empty cell.
Mesaage to be "No more rates"
Can this be done?
Thanks!

=IF(ISERROR(INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A3:L3)+1)),"No more
rates",INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A3:L3)+1))

If using Excel 2007, you can use

=IFERROR(INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A3:L3)+1),"No more rates")

Hi Bob, it's not displaying message. It's displaying "0"
I have 2 ranges: A1:L1 and A3:L3
A1:L1 have : rates 1, rates 2...rates 10. (first 10 cells are filled, and
the last 2 cells are empty)
A3L:3 have random numbers. (first 10 cells are filled and the last 2 are
empty)
I need in the code to display next rate. In this case there is no more
rates, so i need to display a message.
Ex:
A1=rate 1 ; A2=some number -- the code display next rate = rate 2
B1= rate 2 ; B2=some number -- the code display next rate = rate 3
....
J1=rate 10 ; J2=some number -- -- the code display next rate = rate 11 or
"no more rates" if I1 is empty

Cell I1 is empty. Cell "I1" does not contain "rate 11", so the code to
display instead of "rate 11", the message "no more rates".

I Work with ecxel 2003.
Thanks allot Bob!

I think this is what you want

=IF(INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1)="","No more
rates",INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1))

 

[puiuluipui]

Yes, this is exactly what i want.
Thanks!

Hi Bob, i have some problems with your code.
=IF(INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1)="","No more
rates",INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1))

If A3 is empty, then the code display #N/A
For the rest of the cells, the code is working just fine.
If A3 has numbers, i need the code to display rate 2. instead of rate 2, the
code display #N/A.
Can you help me with this one?
Thanks!

Is this better?

=IF(A2="",A1,IF(INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1)="","No more
rates",INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1)))

Beautiful.

=IF(A2="",A1,IF(INDEX(A1:L1,MATCH(9^9,A2:L2)+1)="","No more
