[AccessD] FW: Formula in Report not Calculating

=======Chester, domain functions respond differently to different report 
sections. Also, you mention that the domain functions are actually in the 
query? Is this correct? Please share the expression that's returning #Error.

You'll find that aggregates don't like the Detail section. However, you 
should be able to divide one field by another, which is what it sounds like 
you're doing. If all else fails, put the expression in the query.

As for the description field problem -- are you saying you don't want a 
record for each description then? You can group by description and there's a 
property that inhibits repetitive values -- I can't recall what it is off 
the top of my head. Someone else will probably chime in and if you can't 
find it, I'll go looking for it.
