Hi Lisa,
Easily, you can wrap the formula with one of these functions:
- IFNA
- IFERROR
Examples:
=IFNA(INDEX(CountryList,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(CountryList,OrigData!O18)),0)),"")
=IFERROR(INDEX(CountryList,MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(SEARCH(CountryList,OrigData!O18)),0)),"")
NOTE: IFNA is available in Excel 2013 or later.
Hope that helps
