IFNA with VLOOKUP

I'm performing a VLOOKUP between two tables.

If the returning cell is blank, I want a blank to return also (to avoid the 0/01/1900).

If the lookup value does not appear I want the field to show "Not Found" instead of #N/A

I have had success with both VLOOKUP and IFNA, they work, however, the forumula I am using still returns #N/A despite successfully performing the VLOOKUP and returning the blank from the first arguement. As below :

=IF(VLOOKUP([A,Table2,5,FALSE)="","",IFNA(VLOOKUP(A,Table2,5,FALSE),"Not Found"))

Any advice would be awesome!

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
this should return the date if it exists, ""(blank) if it is blank, and Nothing Found when the lookup value doesn't exist

=IFNA(IF(VLOOKUP(Q3,Table2,5,0)=0,"",VLOOKUP(Q3,Table2,5,0)),"Nothing Found")

chang Q3 to your referenced lookup cell.
