averages containging null values

greg

I have a grouped field in a report that returns some percentage values
ie
90%
90%
0%
50%
null
i want to calculate the average percentage of this field excluding 0 and
null and put it in the group footer
ie
230/3 = 76.66%

How about using the following expression

=Avg(IIF([SomeField=0,Null,SomeField))

Avg ignore nulls so any field the is null won't be used to calculate the
average. And you are forcing zeroes to Null, so they won't be used in the
calculation either.
