Hello,

My title asks my question, but we have a link that pulls in an answer
from another sheet that is #div/0! on the other sheet, but I can't
change the data on the sheet that has the #div/0! error. So I am
trying to write an if statment that gives 0 as a result instead of the
#div/0! error. Any ideas?


=IF(ERROR.TYPE(cell_ref)=2,0,A12)

The other responses will result in a 0 for any error. However, this formula
should be specific for a #DIV/0 error.

That should be:

=IF(ERROR.TYPE(cell_ref)=2,0,cell_ref)
