I've inherited a couple of reports where the original developer has hardcoded a result to 100% when the actual value should have been 0%. There are about 100 fields to alter in each report, which to my mind is an awful lot of very dull work...

Is there a way to automate the task?
 
Not that I'm aware of.

100 fields is a lot, you might consider creating a formula which has 0 in it and base other formulas on it, that way if it changes in the future you can just alter the base formula and they will all be correct.

Bennie,
I did get the 30 day trial version of .rpt inspector and it looked promising but locked out when I tried to use it on day 2...
