=IF(A1=0,"",B1/A1)
Note the double quotes with no space between.
You don't want a space, just a blank-looking cell.
The space would most likely give you problems in downstream calculations or when
sorting, filtering and other functions.

I have sets of data in both Columns A & B. Column C is Column B divided by

in " #DIV/0! " in which case I would like the cells to be clean as in " ". I
assume this makes the worksheet more stable, correct?
