I see #DIV/0! instead of content in some cells
Cause: The formula contains a reference to a blank cell or to a cell that contains zero as a divisor.
Solution: Find and change the blank cell or cell that contains zero.
-
Select the cell that has the error.
-
Click the button that appears next to the #DIV/0! error, and then click Trace Error or Trace Empty Cell.
A tracer arrow shows the cell that is causing the #DIV/0! error.

Do one of the following:
To | Do this |
Use a different cell reference for the divisor | In the Formula Bar, edit the formula. |
Change the cell contents | In the cell that is causing the #DIV/0! error, type a number other than zero. |
Note: If the operand references a blank cell, Excel interprets the blank cell as zero.
Solution: Enter the value #N/A into the cell referenced as the divisor, which will change the result of the formula to #N/A from #DIV/0! to denote that the divisor value is not available.
-
Select the cell that has the error.
-
Click the button that appears next to the #DIV/0! error, and then click Trace Error.
A tracer arrow shows the cell that is causing the #DIV/0! error.
-
In the cell that is causing the #DIV/0! error, type #N/A.
Note: If the operand references a blank cell, Excel interprets the blank cell as zero.
Solution: Prevent the error value from displaying by using the IF function.
For example, if the formula that causes #DIV/0! to appear is =A5/B5, use =IF(B5=0, "", A5/B5) instead. The two quotation marks represent an empty text string, and the error value displays as a blank cell.
