IFERROR - Help, Please

I'm currently running the below formula in a particular column, and applying the colors to the visual symbols:

=IF(Percentage19 < 0.75, "Green", IF(Percentage19 > 0.9, "Red", "Yellow"))

It works great, however I can't stand looking at the "#DIVIDE BY ZERO". I've tried all combinations I can think of, but how can I just have a blank cell if the formula comes back with the "#DIVIDE BY ZERO".

I assume it will include adding in some sort of "if error", but I can't seem to get it.

Thanks.

Hi Nicole,

You're on the right track! You can add an IFERROR function at the beginning of your formula to return a blank cell instead of #DIVIDE BY ZERO:

=IFERROR((Your Formula),"")

The two quotation marks without anything in between them will tell the cell to appear as blank.

Showing "stacked" data / Statuses of items by swimlane
I have multiple items that each have their own statuses and that roll up to "workstreams" or swimlanes. On the dashboard, I would like to show the progress of the items by swimlane without breaking it out into separate widgets for each. This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
