Percentage equals 0 error

What part of "one way" don't you folks understand? <bg
Next time I'll write "here's another way" or "here's an improvement" for
those who don't get that that is implicit as always. <bg

<bg means "big grin". As in a big joking #$%^ eating grin.

Can't you get away with just =IF(H44=0,0,G44/H44) ?

Yes, but you could also get away with just this
if you wanted to:
=IF(H44,G44/H44,0)
That returns an error if H44 is the null string. I thought that might be
why you had included the COUNT condition. But the following covers both
adequately:
=IF(N(H44),N(G44)/H44,0)

Yes, but you could also get away with just this if you wanted to:
=IF(H44,G44/H44,0)
That's why the first line in my reply was:
One way...

I know if I ask for the percentage of =G44/H44 and both columns
contain a 0,
or H44 contains a 0, Excel will return a #DIV/0! error. Is there
anyway to
override that and display 0% until I actually get the numbers in
there from a
database query I need to run, which may be later in the year?
