Avoid #div/0!
 

Hi !

I want enter a sumproduct formula involving three ranges. However if any of
the range does not have a value the formula returns a #div/0! value. I want
to avoid that. Pl help.

Post your sumproduct formula and a description of what your doing

I don't see how a sumproduct function could cause a #div/0! error?
Is there something in your formula where a division is involved?

Avoid #div/0!
 

Suppose col A1 to A5 is rate, Col B1 to B5 is cases and col C1 to C5 case
weight.In cell C6 i have entered a formula
=(SUMPRODUCT(B1:B5,A1:A5)/(SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5)))

to get the per kilogram ( or pound) rate. Which does give the correct
answer, but if there are no figures entered in col A,B or C then the formula
returns #div/0!, which is i want avoid. I am working on 100 rows like this.

Hi,

You could do this

=IF(ISERROR(SUMPRODUCT(B1:B5,A1:A5)/(SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5))),"Incomplete
Data",SUMPRODUCT(B1:B5,A1:A5)/(SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5)))

Yes it did work Thanks a ton.
I forgot to mention that this formula is again multiplied by a constant
(cell reference), which I have done.

It is the division that returns the error, not the function, then.

=(SUMPRODUCT(B1:B5,A1:A5)/(SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5)))

If you get a #DIV/0! error it's because this portion evaluates to 0:

SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5)

Try this:

=IF(SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5),SUMPRODUCT(B1:B5,A1: A5)/(SUMPRODUCT(A1:A5,$C1:$C5),"")
