Hello
In report I have create one percentage column, choosing the option "Grand Total for each column". It is showing the percentage of each value for a column (say x). If sum(x) > 0, it is working fine, but in case all values of x are 0 , it is showing "#DIV/0!" (zero divide error) , since the denominator is 0 (sum(x)=0). So I want to show "N.A." or any text or 0 , instead of "#DIV/0!. Let me know the way.

Thanks in advance
Sourajit

Do an NVL. Take your existing piece of code and put it in place of Z in the following text..

nvl(Z, 'N/A')
