How to prevent Vlookup from returning empty rows when there is no match
I am using Vlookup to match to columns an different sheets and it is working
But when there is no match my formula returns an empty row
Is there a way to prevent the empty rows from being outputted
Thanks
=ArrayFormula(iferror(vlookup(Elements!C2:C, 'tab2'!$A$2:$P, {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16}, 0)))
