What is wrong here?

IF(VLOOKUP(C2,Overrides!$A$1:$F$70,6,false)),="",VLOOKUP(C2,'Pricing & Availability'!$A$1:$F$700,6,FALSE),0)

I want to test if the first lookup is getting no results (#n/a"), then I want to use another vlookup
 

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
Try IFERROR and move some brackets:

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C2,Overrides!$A$1:$F$70,6,false),VLOOKUP(C2,'Pricing & Availability'!$A$1:$F$700,6,FALSE))

If the first lookup is an #N/A it will use the second one.

Thanks it worked

Now I have another outcome, sometimes it will be "Blank", so if its blank "OR" N/A, I need to use the 2nd vlookup

HOw can I do it ?

Use another IF statement to check for the blank first:
=IF(
VLOOKUP(C2,Overrides!$A$1:$F$70,6,false)="",
VLOOKUP(C2,'Pricing & Availability'!$A$1:$F$700,6,FALSE),
IFERROR(VLOOKUP(C2,Overrides!$A$1:$F$70,6,false),VLOOKUP(C2,'Pricing & Availability'!$A$1:$F$700,6,FALSE)))
