Default What does this function do =+IF(ISERR(F27/G27),0,F27/G27)

Solved my problem, Thanks

First of all, the plus sign is unnecessary.
Former users of Lotus tend to habitually use it, since it defined a formula
in Lotus, similar to the equal sign in XL.

What the formula is saying is:
If the division of F27 by G27 returns an error (say G27 was zero), then
return zero, NOT the error.
If NO error is returned, then display the results of the division.
