I have this VLOOKUP and I want to add a condition;

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B3,Teams!$B$28:$C$50,2,FALSE),"")

The condition is that if the value in column C is "NEW" then I need the cell to be blank. As you can see, I have worked out how to add an error trap but don't know how to add an extra 'IF' condition, if in fact that is possible?
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
Try

=IFERROR(IF(VLOOKUP(B3,Teams!$B$28:$C$50,2,FALSE)="NEW","",VLOOKUP(B3,Teams!$B$28:$C$50,2,FALSE)),"")

Another way...
=IF(VLOOKUP(B3,Teams!$B$28:$C$50,2,FALSE)="NEW","",iferror(VLOOKUP(B3,Teams!$B$28:$C$50,2,FALSE),""))

Hi Ford
I don't think that is the same. If the VLOOKUP returns something other than an error then your formula does what was asked, but if the VLOOKUP results in an error, then the OP's original formula returns "", whereas yours returns an error.
