Integer arithmetic in a group summary row

[Jonathan]

I have a group summary item that has the following expression:

= (Sum(Fields.ActualAttendance) / Fields.DaysTaught)

Actual attendance and DaysTaught are integers.  i would like to display the result with single precision decimal.  How can I do this in an expression?  The problem is that the integer arithmetic is returning a tuncated integer so using the format option always display .0
What I need is to cast the integers to decimals beforehand.

Thanks

Hi Jonathan,

You can use the built-in CDbl function for this purpose. More information about the available functions and their purpose is available in the Functions help article.

Thanks,

I ended up changing the underlying busines  object so that all the columns were decimals instead of integers which worked but was probably not the most efficient.

Where is the expression placed for the cell to be populated? I see nothing in the collection editor.
