Hi,
Is this formula is in A6?, if not where is it? With the data you give for Q6 - R6 it will always produce 0 as a result. Simplify the formula like this =IF(ISERROR(S6),0,(R6/Q6)) What is the formula in S6?

If this formula really is in $S$6, then it refers to itself.
Maybe this was meant: =IF(ISERROR(R6/Q6),0,R6/Q6) -- Kind regards, Niek Otten Microsoft MVP - Excel "Alexey" wrote in message ... | Hi | When i open a worksheet I am getting a Circular reference error | The reference is on $s$6 and the forumula is: =IF(ISERROR(S6),0,SUM(R6/Q6)) | | Q6 contains the figure 87 R6 contains 0 | | Can someone explain this to me please I dont understand why it is a circular | reference | | Thanks | | A | | |

Hi both
thanks for your post and help The formula was in S6. Since Q6 will often have data in it, whilst R6 may not yet have any data entered, S6 which is calculating a % (R6/Q6) will return an error if R6 is empty. I am just trying to tidy up the sheet and show a blank in S6 in the instances where R6 is empty Thanks again for your help A |
