Hi

I need to produce a multiple page report which displays a different person's test results on each page. I have a field which displays the person's highest test result as a percentage and I want to display an average of all participant's test results along with the individuals.

I understand that calculations for all reports can be carried out in the report footer but I am experiencing difficulty referring to the percentage field here.

Please let me know if you need further information in order to help.

Many many thanks
 
It sounds like you are trying to refer to the calculated control in the report footer. Unfortunately, Access won't let you do that, you will have to re-calculate the average in the report footer, using the original fields, something like this:
Code:
=Sum([Field1] / [Field2])
or
Code:
=Sum([Field1]) / Sum([Field2])
 
Thanks a lot CosmoKramer. Managed to get it done sorted now.
