How Do I get rid of the #/DIV/0! when a formula e.g. a2+a3+a4/a5 does not
work if a5 is blank. I would like it to display 0

=IF(A5="",0,A3+A4+A4/A5)

Marshall, here is one way, =IF(ISBLANK(A5),0,A2+A3+A4/A5)

The other two suggestions work if A5 is blank, but you'll still get the error
if A5 contains a zero.

How about

=if(a5=0,0,a2+a3+a4/a5)
