Adding an ISBLANK
![SKP](https://us.v-cdn.net/6031209/uploads/defaultavatar/nWRMFRX6I99I6.jpg)
Hi there,
I have my formula that works but forgot I needed to add a clause for when a column cell is empty so it doesn't return an error, which I'm hoping will allow me to make it a column formula without too much fuss.
I'm trying to use ISBLANK as that seems like the best option and I just can't see the problem but it keeps saying it's unparseable. The bracket colours match up, which is leaving me a bit stumped! Can anyone see what is wrong, please?
=IF(OR([End Date]@row > TODAY(), Status@row = "Complete"), "",
IF((AND([End Date]@row < TODAY(), [X Formula]@row > 5)), [Y Formula]@row),
IF(ISBLANK([End Date]@row), "Blank"))
Thank you so much!

Hi @SKP
I hope you're well and safe!
Try something like this.
= IF([End Date]@row="","",IF(OR([End Date]@row > TODAY(), Status@row = "Complete"), "", IF((AND([End Date]@row < TODAY(), [X Formula]@row > 5)), [Y Formula]@row)
Did that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
