Replace #DIV/0! with other values

Is it possible to replace the output from #DIV/0! to 0 or other random values within a cell?

I tried using if statement, but it won't let me:

=IF(A1=#DIV/0!,0)

Thanks for your help.

That formula is simple: Code: =a1/a2 The problem is that if the value in A2 is zero, it doesn't work, thus the error you're seeing, so check that cell first. There are couple of ways to do that. Code: =IF(ISERROR(A1/A2),0,A1/A2) or =IF(A2=0,0,A1/A2)
