Need help with a formula. Cell L5 currently has a DIV/0 error, and if I use the formula IFERROR(L5,I5), the formula returns the value in cell I5. But, when I change the formula to IF(OR(ISERROR(L5),L5=0)),I5,L5), the formula returns DIV/0. I can’t figure out why this formula doesn’t recognize the error in cell L5 and return the value in cell I5. I need the value from column I whenever the value in column L is an error or zero.

I guess it’s an issue with the OR formula. The formula worked when I changed the formula to IF(ISERROR(L5),I5,IF(L5=0,I5,L5)).

Try posting a screen shot of the issue with the cell f2’d

This is because OR evaluates both terms and since one is #DIV0 it returns an error that propagates

Just use IFERROR( If(L5=0, I5, xxxx), I5)

like

Wrap the formula in L5 with iferror “”
Then instead of iferror(L5,I5) make it if(L5=“”,I5,L5)

Fastest calculation time would be: iferror(1/(1/L5);I5)

Chat GPT mah dude

ChatGPT gave me the formula that didn’t work!
