Hello. I have the following formula in my query:

Rx Payments: IIf([tbl_RevCode_Classifications].[Total Charges]=0,0,Sum(([tbl_RevCode_Classifications].[Rx Charges]/[tbl_RevCode_Classifications].[Total Charges])*[tbl_RevCode_Classifications].[CashReceipts]))
On the Total Line I have "Expression"

When I run the query I get "your query does not include the specified expression as part of an aggregate function" on that above formula.

Google sites argue that I need "Group by". I tried that rather than Expression to no avail.

I've been at this all day and don't know what else to do. HELP.

Thank you.

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Welcome to the Board!

I think you may have structured it wrong. You typically see "SUM" on The "Totals" row of the query, not in the formula itself in Aggregate Queries.
Can you post a small sample of your data, along with an explanation of your expected results?

The Google notion that you need Group By likely doesn't apply to your calculated field - it may be that one or more fields used in that expression is also part of the SELECTed fields but it/they are not part of a Group By. Just a guess without seeing the entire sql. Even then it's not likely I'd know for sure as I usually have trouble getting what I want from a Totals query.
