    Conditional Formatting - Replace #N/A with text

    Right guys,

    Having some trouble using conditional formatting.
    I have a workbook of about 4000 rows of data.
    I am using lookups to pull relevant data onto one sheet to display it in an easier to use manor.

    Some of the values are coming up as #N/A, but this was expected.

    I am basically trying to use conditional formatting, or something of that kind to replace the "#N/A" error with the word "Solid".

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers,

    Nick

    Simplest way with 2007
    =IFERROR(Your formula,"Solid")
    If you want it compatable with 2003
    =IF(ISNA(Your formula),"Solid", Your Formula)
    Does that work for you?

    substitute commas with semi-colons if your region settings requires

    Works perfectly!
    Getting an "Inconsistent Formula" notification, but it all seems to work perfectly.

    Thanks!!
