	Hi guys, Ive got a report drawing data from a table in which all fields are varchar (I cannot change this). However, some of these fields contain numeric or boolean values only, even though they are defined as text. So is there some way to get the summary fields to calculate mean or a countIf type thing, even if the field is of text type? Thanx in advance Ed

	Hi, Create two formulas first to convert text to number formula1 tonumber({tablename.field} then use that formula in another one formula 2 Median(formula1) Cheers Rahul

	Where can I do this? I cant find any place where I can set a formula for the fields to be displayed. I can only find where I can set formulas for the selection.
