In cell A2 of the “MAIN” worksheet, I am attempting to combine these 2 formulas together.
When I do, the formula returns “#NAME?”
I suspect my syntax is incorrect, can someone offer assistance?

FORMULA 1
=IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'FMA TABLE'!D:D,'FMA TABLE'!E:E),"")

FORMULA 2
=IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'SLNX TABLE'!D:D,'SLNX TABLE'!C:C),"")

FORMULA 1 AND 2 COMBINED
=IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'FMA TABLE'!D:D,'FMA TABLE'!E:E),IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'SLNX TABLE'!D:D,'SLNX TABLE'!C:C),””))
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Your combined formula seems to have slanted double-quotes, which Excel does not like. Try using straight up and down ones, i.e. change this:

=IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'FMA TABLE'!D:D,'FMA TABLE'!E:E),IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'SLNX TABLE'!D:D,'SLNX TABLE'!C:C),””))
to this:
Rich (BB code):
=IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'FMA TABLE'!D:D,'FMA TABLE'!E:E),IFERROR(XLOOKUP(F2,'SLNX TABLE'!D:D,'SLNX TABLE'!C:C),""))

You can also use xlookup's in built error handling like
Excel Formula:
=XLOOKUP(F2,'FMA TABLE'!D:D,'FMA TABLE'!E:E,XLOOKUP(F2,'SLNX TABLE'!D:D,'SLNX TABLE'!C:C,""))
