If and OR Functions

I have a large set of data (250+ columns and 2500+ rows). This contains a few key columns that can contain blank cells in error. I can use an IF and OR function combined to identify rows with blank cells in particular columns. Is there a way for me to display multiple cell references for the blank cells (i.e. A1; D1; etc.) rather than just a word identifier.

RE: If and OR Functions

Hi James,

Thank you for the forum question.

I have attached a workbook with my solution. You can use a combination of the IF Function, the ADDRESS Function, the COLUMN Function and the ROW Function.

I hope this will do the job for you.

Kind regards

Excel tip:

Autofit column width – Excel (all versions)

a. Highlight the column or columns you wish to alter the width of. You do this by clicking on the grey button at the top of the column showing the column letter. Click and drag on these letters to select more than one column.
b. Double click the dividing line between the columns. This dividing line is the break between the columns on the column headers (grey buttons showing the column letter at the top of each column). When you hover your mouse over one of these dividing lines the point will change and show an arrow pulling a line in two directions. When you have this mouse pointer you should double click to get Excel to automatically set the column width to fit the contents of the column (autofit)
