Cry

I have a basic formula

Sum ({repeat_admits_table.# of Admits}, {repeat_admits_table.YEAR})

/ (divided by)

DistinctCount ({repeat_admits_table.Member Id}, {repeat_admits_table.YEAR})

I gives me a results rounded to 2.0 but I want the decimals? Not sure how to get this to work

What does your number format look like for that formula?  Also did you click on the increase decimals icon on the toolbar?

the increase decimal button will take it to 2.5 but when I want to go out one more place it turns into 2.50?

thanks

you can always try the totext() function, there are several options to force the format.  You should be able to use the format text option after you drop the formula on the report.
