ISDEFINED function

Prev Next

​​​Description

Returns TRUE if the given Value is defined, BLANK otherwise.

Note: This function is similar to the function ISNOTBLANK. However it returns BLANK values instead of FALSE, which means that any cells equal to FALSE remain unpopulated. The result is sparse, which means less data, and also less time required to write the result in the database. This prevents max cardinality and timeout errors.
