This will fail under certain conditions. To get it to work right do the following: Function SafeDivide(Numerator As Number, Denominator As Number) As Number If Denominator0 Then if Numerator0 then SafeDivide=Numerator\Denominator end if end if End Function OR (.NET only) Function SafeDivide(Numerator As Number, Denominator As Number) As Number If Denominator0 AndAlso Numerator0 Then SafeDivide=Numerator\Denominator end if End Function Was just looking for something else and i came across this. This will fail under certain conditions. To get it to work right do the following:

Function SafeDivide(Numerator As Number, Denominator As Number) As Number
If Denominator0 Then
if Numerator0 then
SafeDivide=Numerator\Denominator
end if
end if
End Function

OR (.NET only)

Function SafeDivide(Numerator As Number, Denominator As Number) As Number
If Denominator0 AndAlso Numerator0 Then
SafeDivide=Numerator\Denominator
end if
End Function
