Default Get rid of #DIV/0! without repeating denominator?

I you're using Excel 2007 it's pretty easy:

=IFERROR(your_formula(...),"")

If the formula does not return #DIV/0! what is the typical range of results
you expect? Would a result of 0 be OK instead of blank?

I have some very long denominator formulas and these formulas are repeated
many times. Is there an alternate method to avoid the #DIV/O! error
WITHOUT
repeating the denominator?


=IF((denominator formula)=0,"",(numerator formula/denominator formula).

One of my actual formulas broken down is...


=IF

DENOMINATOR...

(SUMPRODUCT(('Call Activity'!$E:$E=$D16)*('Call Activity'!$C:$C="CHEM
LIME")*(ISNUMBER(MATCH('Call Activity'!$Q:$Q,{0,1},0))

=0,"",

NUMERATOR...

(SUMPRODUCT(('Call Activity'!$E:$E=$D16)*('Call Activity'!$C:$C="CHEM
LIME")*('Call Activity'!$Q:$Q=1))

/

DENOMINATOR...

(SUMPRODUCT(('Call Activity'!$E:$E=$D16)*('Call Activity'!$C:$C="CHEM
LIME")*(ISNUMBER(MATCH('Call Activity'!$Q:$Q,{0,1},0)))))))


Thanks,
