Maybe some one can help.
I need an excel formula in column "C" that will test column "B" for which cells have a correct result return (I.e. anything that doesn't return the #VALUE! comment) after that I would like the formula to copy the correct results and paste the values only to column "D" then delete the blank space.

Can someone help, I don't write excel formulas

Thanks
 
Good Morning Netwrkengeer,

I have a solution for you:

1) Use the formula, "=IF(ISERROR(B2),"",B2)" in column 'C'. This will return the column 'B' value unless it is an error, in which case it will return a blank cell.

2) Then copy column 'C' and "Paste Special" into 'D' clicking the box "Values" and delete the column.

Please let me know if this helps.

Yes that works,

Thank.... Is there a way do delete empty space?


Thanks
 
Yes. Highlight the column by clicking on the heading, and press "Delete" on your keyboard.

Is this what you mean?
