Thanks to both. Gord, you are correct the error does come because the result of the calculation at I4 is 0. This occurs due to no entry in D4.

Thanks again,

Les

Looks to me like the error would arise when I4 is empty or 0

Try this to give a message if I4 is empty.

=IF(I4="","There is no entry in I4",IF((G4+H4)0,(I4-F4)/I4,0))

I have my project inventory sheet working other than a divide by 0 error
#DIV/0! when they don't enter a value in the quantity field.

Is it possible to move the cursor to the quantity field and display a
message with this error?

Or, is it time to start learning VB?

This is the code that calculates the sales margin and gives the error

=IF((G4+H4)0,(I4-F4)/I4,0)

The quantity cell is D4

Thanks for your help,

Les
