    Hello
    When a category is displayed in archive.php I have the subcategories listed using this working code

    <?php
if ( is_category() ) {
  $current_cat = get_query_var('cat');
  wp_list_categories('&title_li=&show_count=1&child_of='.$current_cat);
}
?>

    How can this be changed to hide when there are no subcategories?

    either try to add the parameter for 'show_option_none', set to an empty string, to the code, 

    wp_list_categories('&title_li=&show_count=1&child_of='.$current_cat.'&show_option_none=');

    or try:

    <?php
if ( is_category() ) {
  $current_cat = get_query_var('cat');
  $child_cats = wp_list_categories('&title_li=&show_count=1&child_of='.$current_cat.'&echo=0&show_option_none=');
  if( $child_cats ) { echo $child_cats; }
}
?>

    the list would need to be wrapped in ul tags; do you have those in your code?
    if so, you will need to include them into the if statement.
