     Posted: 05 Apr 2012 at 2:41am

I am new to Crystal and programming in general.

 

Here is what I have

 

//average formula

sum({@Total Van})/count({CostQuoteCosts.CostLane})

 

But in the design it shows the average value multiple times (for each CostQuote) so it looks like

 

$1760

$1760

$1760

$1760

$1760

$1760

$1760

$1760

 

How can I write the formula so that it only returns one value since the average is the same?

the formula you have will determine the average for the report...as there is no group qualifier.
 
with that said, there are at least 2 ways to skin the cat that come to mind.
1) place you formula in a footer...since a footer is only displayed once, the average will be as well.
2) check the option to supress if duplicated (Format object, Common tab)
 
Personally, I would go with option 1, again, since it would display the total for the report, I would place it in the report footer...but that's just me.
