- Excel has a number of error checking functions,…and if you were looking for them in the help system,…you can go to the Formulas tab and choose Reference,…and you'll find most of them under Information Functions,…for example, ISERROR, ISERR, and a few more here, too.…ISNA, not exactly an error, but it would help us find…those kinds of functions, as well.…And you'll also find some not here,…but under Logical Functions, because here's one…that begins with IFERROR.…That's relatively new.…
