working on an overtime report and trying to get this to work

shared numbervar RegTotal := If({field}) = "Reg" Then Sum({field});
shared numbervar OtTotal := If ((Instr({field},"Over") >= 0)) Then Sum({field});

RegTotal / OtTotal * 100

seems pretty simple but it's returning 0 for some reason. if i remove the Sum portion of the above code it then returns 100.

i'm not really sure what i am missing or if i am missing something here. any help or guidance is definitely appreciated.

thank you!

Hi

Check this statement :

If ((Instr({field},"Over") >= 0)) Then Sum({field});

If it finds "Over" or not it will sum(field) because you are checking with '>=' Is it a requirement ? other wise use only '>'

Also create two different formulas for each condition and place in your report to check what it is returning.

Thanks,
