calculating a percentage

B

Belinda7237

I have a field Question 1aa that has a result of Yes or No
I also have a record id count for a particular month 9user enters a start
and end date)

The query will return a count of yes and no but i want to also add a
calculation in the query that includes the percentage of "yes" of the overall
count.


Percent yes: ([CountOfRecord ID]/[Question 1aa])

I am a novice - can anyone help in what the builder should look like?

Try using the expressions instead of the name of the
calculated fields. E.g.

Percent yes: Sum(IIf([Question 1aa],1,0)) / Count(*)
