Hello,

I am under pressure to get this report finalized within an hour. So I am hoping for some quick guidance!

Here's the problem, I am use an if with an and statement. Some of the cells that are dividing 0 result in a #div/0. How do I supress the #div/o and display a 0?

Here are the four different if statements I am using in this template:

Code:
=IF(E9/B9<=$H$3,E9*$H$4,0)
=IF(AND((E9/B9)>=$I$2,(E9/B9)<=$I$3),E9*$I$4,0)
=IF(AND((E9/B9)>=$J$2,(E9/B9)<=$J$3),E9*$J$4,0)
=IF((E9/B9)>=$K$2,E9*$K$4,0)

The if statements work fine as long as it isn't dividing by 0.... I've been trying to use an IsError formula but haven't been successful.

Please help!

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Welcome to MrExcel.

Try:

=IF(ISERROR(IF(E9/B9<=$H$3,E9*$H$4,0)=TRUE),"0",IF(E9/B9<=$H$3,E9*$H$4,0))

Hope this helps.

How about:

Code:
=IF(ISERROR(E9/B9),0,IF(E9/B9<=$H$3,E9*$H$4,0))
=IF(ISERROR(E9/B9),0,IF(AND((E9/B9)>=$I$2,(E9/B9)<=$I$3),E9*$I$4,0))
=IF(ISERROR(E9/B9),0,IF(AND((E9/B9)>=$J$2,(E9/B9)<=$J$3),E9*$J$4,0))
=IF(ISERROR(E9/B9),0,IF((E9/B9)>=$K$2,E9*$K$4,0))

Thank you FKoenig! I know I wasn't far off. I was missing the IF and the last , in the nested if. Appreciate the help!

Good call FKoenig, it looks like that e9/b9 is the only thing that could be throwing the error. You could probably even reduce it to if b9=0 or b9="".
