    how to remove #DIV/0 error

    I have a simple formula that calculates the percentage from two numbers.
    the numbers are inputted weekly so i have week numbers from 1-52 already set out.

    We are currently on week 42 so up until week 42 works correctly however all the fields after that give back the result
    #DIV/0!
    I know why this is, because there is nothing in the columns (yet) but i still want the formula to be in the box for the future.
    (also because i create a graph from the data the error values cause issues)

    is there a way I can remove these errors just so that you cant see them but if the cells it refers to DO get filled in, it updates correctly with a percentage.

    Wrap your formula in IFERROR()

    =IFERROR("your formula","")

    Or for 2003
    =IF(ISERROR("your formula"),"","your formula")
