syntax?

I have two columns in a report that I need to divide the results. I have a
column named New and it is summed up at the bottom of the column. The other
column is called Days Worked. It is also summed up at the bottom. What would
be the expression to divide the cum of new and the sum of the days worked?

=[sumoffield1]/[sumoffield2]

I think that that's what Wayne meant but he 'summed' it up again.

I am assuming that the totals are in a footer. Create a textbox in the
footer and set it's controlsource to:

= Sum([New]) / Sum([Days Worked])

If your control names are different, make the appropriate substitutions.

to read posts more carefully.

Drock-13 ignor my "sum" and use Maurice's "division"
