Hi I am having probs with a formula..:banghead: 
 
=IF(D12=0,0,ROUNDDOWN(+E12/E7,2)) works fine
 
I want to add one more condition 
 
=IF(D12=0 OR D7=0,0,ROUNDDOWN(+E12/E7,2)) doesnt work
 
it throws up an error when I add OR D7=0...
 
Any idea on how i can incorporate both conditions.
 
Regards

Maybe try this??
IF(Or(D12=0,D7=0),0,ROUNDDOWN(+E12/E7,2))

Alternately you can multiply the cells to see if they are zero (which would indicate at least one of them is zero).
 
If(D12*D7=0,0,ROUNDDOWN(E12/E7,2))
 
And we can eliminate the =0 part.
 
If(D12*D7,ROUNDDOWN(E12/E7,2),0)

Sweeeeeeeet... Thanks Sandam and DRJ.. 
I am using Sandam's formula and it works like a charm..
 
DRJ I will give ur formula a shot..but having a hard time figuring out how 
the 2nd one works..
If(D12*D7,ROUNDDOWN(E12/E7,2),0)

0 = False
 
So if D12*D7 is equal to 0 the If formula will evaluate the False portion otherwise it will evaluate the True portion.
 
When you use D12*D7=0 that will be evaluated to True or False. But in this case if D12*D7 is equal to 0 it will be evaluated to True.
 
Hopefully that makes sense.
 
Also, any of these formulas will work just fine, so use the one that you understand the best. I just wanted to point out some variations.
