Excel 2003 MODE function returns #N/A

Hi,

I have a user with an Excel spreadsheet who wants to use the mode function but it returns #N/A. I have tried it and I get #N/A, I am not sure if it he can use mode in this way?  He also claims that he knows someone that says it works in Excel 2010 but I don't have it to test.

Here is what he is trying to do.

=MODE(D3:D9)

DR %

50.22
67.49
52.30
27.33
25.15
39.45
0.00

#N/A

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

As per Excel Help on the MODE() function.  MODE returns #N/A if no duplicates are found.

If you want to return a blank instead of the error, then try:

=IFERROR(MODE(D3:D9),"")
V,
OP has 2003, so you'd need ISERROR or ISNA.
Thanks R,

then it would be:

=IF(ISNA(MODE(D3:D9)),"",MODE(D3:D9))
