What Does It Do ? This function shows TRUE if given a cell address, or FALSE for any other type of value. Its a bit of an odd one, and is normally used in macros rather than on the worksheet. Syntax =ISREF(ValueToTest) The ValueToTest can be any type of data, but when used on the worksheet, it cannot be a reference to the contents of another cell, as the reference will itself be evaluated by the function. Formatting No special formatting is needed.
