Hi,

It is possible to use If ISBLANK to find a blank cell lest say Y39 and if it
is blank inout the text Month Unknown into the cell?

If so please tell me what is the syntax as I ahve tried and no luck...if not
can you offer an alternative?

Thank you
 
Do you mean

=IF(Y39="","Month Unknown","")

'If you have date in Y39
=IF(Y39,TEXT(Y39,"mmmm"),"Month Unknown")

If you have a formula returning a blank "" then ISBLANK will not identify
that as a blank cell..
=IF(ISBLANK(Y39),"Month Unknown","")

Hi Jacob,

Just so I am clear...I have cells that have months based on a date but some
of the dates are blank hence no month will show...I want to be able to put
the words Month Unknown into the blank cells so when I chart by month those
blanks will say Month Unknown
 
Select the column. Press function key F5.>Click 'Special'>check 'Blanks' and
hit OK..
This will select all blank cells in the range..Keeping the selection type
'Month Unknow' and hit Ctrl+Enter..

If these cells have formulas then modify the formula to return 'Month blank'
if a month cannot be returned

If this post helps click Yes
 
Hmm...I can do that but im looking for an automatic method since the data
sheet will be constantly updated..so I need a formula that will always look
for blanks and then write the text in the cells if it finds a blank cell..
