Conditional Formatting from LIST

[JTL9161]

I have this formula in a Conditional Formatting rule

=MATCH($K12,LIST,0)

If the cell where the rule is contains the same data as is on the LIST then highlight which work correctly.
The cells with the rule have this formula
=""&VLOOKUP($F16,'Draft'!$G$261:$L$406,5,FALSE)

My problem is that if the vlookup formula returns a blank the MATCH rule is still highlighting the blank cell. Is that maybe because the LIST is 50 rows and contains blanks? Is the MATCH highlighting because of the blank cells in the LIST?

Thanks,
James

=MATCH($K12,LIST,0)

Try and revert -

=And(Match($K12,LIST,0),$K12<>"")
