You can test in an IIf() and only do the division if it's greater than zero. __________________ Paul Microsoft Access MVP To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.

Division By Zero Error In Sql
0 Posts Access 2010 division by 0 error Hi, I have got a div by 0 problem which I've tried to get round by using an IIf statement with no luck. It's in an aggregate query grid, http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=176338 the formula is in "expression" mode and is: Sum([I3]*([DirectHours]/[B3])) I've tried Iif (([b3]=0,"",...... but no luck. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks so much BL Reply With Quote 2014-02-18,10:23 #2 WendellB View Profile View Forum Posts Visit Homepage Super Moderator Join Date Aug 2001 Location Evergreen, CO, USA Posts 6,613 Thanks 3 Thanked 58 Times in 58 Posts First, is this in a query or behind a form or report? Since http://windowssecrets.com/forums/showthread.php/159603-Access-2010-division-by-0-error you are attempting to use the Immediate If function, I will presume it is in a query. In that case, the syntax should be something like Sum([I3] * IIF(Nz([B3],0)=0,0,[DirectHours]/[B3])) - note that is untested aircode - but the idea is to deal not only with the 0 case, but also with the case where [B3] is null. That uses the Nz() function to return a 0 if it is null.

P: 74 ollyb303 Hi, I have created a report in my Access db https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/755413-divide-zero-report-num which has two columns - I'll call them Number1 and Number2. I have added a textbox to calculate a percentage from these two numbers =([Number1]/[Number2]) with the format property set as percentage. My problem. Sometimes the number in Number2 is a zero, which means the result of the expression is invalid and gives me "#Num!" - I understand why this is happening, but I wondered if there was a way around it. What I would like to happen is that when division by it is trying to divide by zero, the #Num! is substituted for a blank space or a zero. This is purely cosmetic as I would like my report to look neater. Any help gratefully received. Thanks, Olly Jan 4 '08 #1 Post Reply Share this Question 9 Replies Expert Mod 15k+ P: 29,922 NeoPa Try setting the result to : Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers =IIf([Number2]=0,[Number1],[Number1]/[Number2]) Jan 4 '08 #2 reply P: 74 ollyb303 Perfect! Thanks so much, this works a treat. Jan 4 '08 division by zero #3 reply Expert Mod 15k+ P: 29,922 NeoPa No worries Olly. Just pleased it helped :) Jan 4 '08 #4 reply Expert 2.5K+ P: 3,532 missinglinq Or, for those who find iif() confusing, and it can be, especially if nested 12 times, as some are wont to do: = [Number1] / Nz([Number2], 1) Linq ;0)> Jan 5 '08 #5 reply Expert Mod 15k+ P: 29,922 NeoPa Good point Linq (in fact that's how I would tend do it myself). I wasn't sure without checking if Nz() was available as a formula within a control though. Jan 5 '08 #6 reply Expert 2.5K+ P: 3,532 missinglinq Actually, Ade, if you think about it, if one Access function would work in a Control Source, the other would, but in point of fact both of our codes were lacking! Mine took care of the problem if Number2 was Null, and yours took care of the problem if Number2 = 0, but neither took care of both possibilities! So I modified yours! =IIf([Number2]= 0 or IsNull([Number2]),[Number1],[Number1]/[Number2]) Linq ;0)> Jan 5 '08 #7 reply Expert Mod 15k+ P: 29,922 NeoPa Actually, Ade, if you think about it, if one Access function would work in a Control Source, the other would, Actually, Nz() is "special" in this respect. I can't remember the finer details of exactly where I've found this (may even be in Excel rather than Access) but there certainly is somewhere where Nz() is not available b
