I need the cell to read 0
Just the same as befo
=IF(J26=0,0,(E34+H34)/J26)
or:
=IF(OR(J26=0,J26=""),"",(E34+H34)/J26)
depending of what may be in J26. If only ever a BLANK cell or a number then
the first one. If J26 *may* contain an empty string, (for instance if J26
had a forrmula like: =IF(J16="","",10) which will return "" or 10) then use
the second one.

I have the formula
=(e34+h34)/j26
it gives me the #div0! error.
I want it to read 0

That worked thanks, it helped alot. However what if I have a formula
that
reads =(e34+h34)/j26. How do I get the ) in that formula?

Try:
=IF(G3=0,0,AM3/G3)
Note: no need for the SUM() function.
or:
=IF(G3=0,"",AM3/G3)
To return an empty looking cell instead of a zero.
If there is any chance that G3 may contain an empty string, (from a
formula)
then use:
=IF(OR(G3=0,G3=""),"",AM3/G3)
