AboutAidan Heritage Expertise I have provided first hand support since `95 for Microsoft Office majoring in Word and Excel - support for
all versions from 2 onwards
Experience My background is in the insurance industry and call centre areas, but have been called upon to provide many varied solutions.
Education/Credentials I'm educated to UK A level standard, but as I left school some 30 years ago that is rather irrelevent - university of life has provided more of a background!
Question Ok, so I'm doing what I thought was a relatively simple formula. basically, just dividing two arrays. of course, one of the arrays only has two numbers and the rest are 0s so i got divide by zero errors. No problem, i thought, and put in my iserror statement, =IF(ISERROR(H:H/B:B),0,H:H/B:B). Now, here comes the fun part. I get all 0s (indicating error) but one. (remember, I have two cells that should be getting values!!) AND the one cell that isn't a 0 is a little "-" sign instead. This, and the one other cell, were giving me values before!! Help please...
Answer I'm puzzled slightly in that you refer to an array, but then multiple values - which implies that the formula as given isn't quite what you are using - I would be INCLINED to try
=if(value(B)=0,0,H/B)
this assumes you are using one row per row, rather than entering an array formula. However, I may have misunderstood the function you are trying to use - my email is aidan.heritage@virgin.net if it would help to mail me a sample file to check.
