I am making a chart and found part of my solution in a previous post. I used
the following formula to solve part of my dilema. Q: I have A1 and B1. How do I show the difference as a percentage in C1? A: As a percentage of A1: =(B1-A1)/A1, Format as % As a percentage of B1: =(B1-A1)/B1, Format as % My problem lies here. If A1 =0, then I get #DIV/0!. If both A1 and B1 are =0 I get the same message. I am trying to show the number of cases compared as a + or - percentage between A1 and B1, as in the number increased by a certain percentage. EX: A1=5 B1=1 Answer= +80% I also need the formula to show as a negative percentage, as in the number decreased a certain percentage. |
