ISERR Function - Excel


Overview


The ISERR function in Excel is a useful tool for checking if a cell contains any errors other than a “#N/A” error. This function will return a TRUE value if the specified cell contains any errors except for “#N/A” and it will return a FALSE value if the cell does not contain any errors.

value: This is the value or reference to the cell you want to check for errors.


TRUE Example
