Default Delete the contents of a cell if it contains #DIV/0! Automaticall.

Try this simple macro:

Sub ClearErrors()
Dim r As Range
Set r = Range("A1:DI54").Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeForm ulas, xlErrors)
r.Clear
End Sub



Macros are very easy to install and use:

1. ALT-F11 brings up the VBE window
2. ALT-I
ALT-M opens a fresh module
3. paste the stuff in and close the VBE window

If you save the workbook, the macro will be saved with it.

To remove the macro:

1. bring up the VBE window as above
2. clear the code out
3. close the VBE window

To use the macro from Excel:

1. ALT-F8
2. Select the macro
3. Touch RUN

I am building an execl sheet that holds production data. Some pieces of
equipment only run occasionally and because of this they cause a #DIV/0!
error. I want to be able to look through the complete range (a1:di54) of
cells and whenver I find the error i want to delete the contents of the cell.
I guess this is possible to do using a Visual Basic module but my experience
of Visual Basic is limited.
