I have a database that requires me to find the average of some data over several columns, however if one of the values I have to divide by is a zero I get a 'Can't Divide By Zero Error' is there any way to override this ? So that if a Divide by Zero Occurs, instead of returning a 'Can't Divide By Zero Error' it just replaces it with a Zero instead ?
View 6 RepliesI have conditional formatting on a cell based on a formula, when I entered the solution of "if then 0 " but the cell doesn't see the result as a 0, if I manually enter the 0 the conditional format works.
I even tried putting the formula in another cell and then referencing to that cell, still didn't work...
The "divide by zero error won't trigger the conditional either......

I am creating a 'weekly average spreadsheet' (Excel 2007) for a teacher. It has a column for each student's name and his test grade for each day (M-F). The last column gives his weekly average.
She also needs an average for all the students' for the week (vertically). My formula is correct, i.e., =AVERAGE(H2:H11). However, I'm getting a divide by zero error because I have some blank rows above my formula (so she can add new students' names as they come.
How can I get rid of the divide by zero error so she can see the running averages as she inputs grades (but still leaving empty rows for new names)?
Is it possible to replace 'Divide by Zero Error' with just a Zero? See a small section of what I'm trying to do. I can't add the full spreadsheet it huge over 4 MB. way too big for this forum.

I'm the final stages of testing a userform that, in response to a button click, copies certain cells from a big messy worksheet and pastes the relevant ones (based on user input) in a clean sheet. Suddenly, I started getting a 'divide by zero' error for the following line:
VB : UpCount = PickNum - 6 + ((PickNum / 12))
UpCount and PickNum are both declared as Double, though this shouldn't matter. UpCount is being assigned a value here for the first time, and PickNum varies from 1 to about 250 depending on input.
Obviously I'm only dividing by a constant here, which is VISIBLY not zero. This error only occurs for certain ranges of PickNum...something like 50-70. Interestingly, in trying to debug it, I added:
VB:
Msgbox(PickNum)
Msgbox(54/12)
...since PickNum was 54 as I was getting this error. Just dividing 54 by 12 ALSO got a div by zero error.
Perhaps I should mention I'm using VBA in Excel 2010 for Mac.
If I have a value of lets say 53, I need it broken down into equal and whole numbers across the spread sheet with the last one being the remaining value.
Currently for example in cell F5 I have a value of 41 that I need to break down so
I have done the following:
In Cell P5 =IF(F5>=25,F5-21,F5)
Then in Cell Z5 =IF(P5>=25,P5-21,P5) and this goes on until I have zero value from the original value in the last cell can i not do this all in one formula and have the results populate in other cells.
I have just started to try and learn VBA for excel. the resource I have been using are books and the WEB. Some how, not sure how there was/is some code where all enteries in all worksheets are divided by 100, i.e if I enter 2222 after clicking the enter button the result in the cell is 22.22. I have deleted all macros and code however the problem still exist.

I have minutes of meeting and have to divide them into different sheets against completed, and different departments and dept HOD responsible for it. How do I do it without "Copy/Pasting" the code? Also I have to remove the ones that are done. Any macro or something that can be written for these.
format of sheet
Sl No. | Date | Remarks | Dept | Dept Head 1 | Dept Head 2 | Status

View 10 Replies View RelatedExcel has a QUARTILE function to divide a population into quartiles. I'm trying to do something similar but divide a population into deciles (i.e., every 10%). Is there any easy way to divide a large population into deciles and to assign a decile to each value in the population (i.e., top 10%, 11-20%, 21-30%, . . . bottom 10%)?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a data extract that gets generated at the end of each month that I post into the 'Full Extract' tab on my example spreadsheet.
writing a macro that will divide the various items in the 'Extract' based on the Reference, (some items may need to go into multiple sheets)
then draw down the formulas that need to be applied to the item.
I'm lost on VBA, but I have been successful at recording a few extremely simple macros. I have a number of pdf statements that I have run through OCR, and the OCR often misses the decimal point so that 43.85 comes out as 4385. (this is in dollars, so everything has 2 decimals).
These cells are usually pretty easy to spot, so I want to select that cell, press a keystroke or 2, and divide the value in that cell by 100. I assumed that by selecting "relative cell references", and recording a macro with the keystrokes "<F2>/100<HOME>=" (without the quotes, of course), I would accomplish that. But instead, it places a constant in that cell, with the value obtained in the cell where I recorded the macro.
=1/25%
is it that you want a UDF
Function MyFun(a,b)
MyFun = a / b
End Function
Usage:
=MyFun(1, 25%)

I may not even be calling it the right thing. but let me explain what i'm looking to do. i've got three columns on a spreadsheet and i need to be able to add two columns together and then divide the sum by another column. so something like this:
4+4/636 = 79.5
d2+f2 (divided by) h2 = 79.5
I really struggle with the following scenario:
A1=5 B1=4 C1=0 D1=0 E1=5
What I want to do is to divide the sum of those cells with the number of cells with a value > 0 (but all cells must be controlled to check if the value > 0).
In real life it's easy to see that I want to do 14/3 (A1>0, B1>0 and E1>0 equals three cells), but how to write this formula in Excel?
How to divide two cells if there is no text in the first?
i.e.: if there is text display a 0 and if there is a number to divide it with a second number in another cell.
I am trying to divide the total of two groups of cells and I used the following formula:
=sum(B3:M3)/(B17:M17)
However, that is not a correct formula.
I'm trying to divide the value in column A by the data in B:AO using VBA, however I need to repeat this for many rows (the values differ for each row).
There could also be a different amount of rows with data in each time, and there is also a single blank row after every 18 rows with data.
In A1 I have the value 60 I want it in 1:00:00 format

Fallowed EXCEL instruction, for >DIVIDE TEXT ACROSS CELS< but result is not what it should be.
1, I select . >FIXED WIDTH< Than I create ONE !! >BREAK LINE<
2, click NEXT / FINISH.
3, MY text is split but not to two column but to MANY COLUMNS?
Repeat many times, always careful that ONLY ONE break line selected.
Also when I first select. >FIXED WIDTH< and click next.
My text is already market with many >BREAK LINES< so I have to first
delete all, seems to me strange.

I have three different sets of numbers on a r12m that I have to add and divide by different numbers and not quite sure I have the formula right as when I do it manually on a calculator it comes out different.
The formula I have put together is
=sum(O4:z4)/10)+(sum(o5:z5)/200)+(sum(06:z6)/1000)
This is the three rows of data
221121
2333443201142
402448314034292331351663
Using the formula above the result is 0.81 but if I do it manually on a calculator it is 1.6 (by doing each line individually and adding results)
I have a lot of cells containing numbers. Some numbers are small, some are big.
I want to divide all numbers which are greater than 300 by 1000.
IF cell A2 > 300 THEN divide by 1000.
How to do that? Is it possible to convert value in the same cell like using conditional formatting principle?
I basically have lots of lists of 12 cells. how ever some of those lists contain errors (e.g instead of having 12 numbers it will only have 10)
so instead of doing =sum(a1:a12)/12 i want to divide by the amount of numbers in that area in this case 10 so i can get an average.
