    in my case, i do all my calculations in the SQL, instead of in the report....

    so my SQL would have one more field, that has this for the calculation:

    (A_Rev_TY/B_Rev_TY) / (A_Rev_LY/B_Rev_LY)-1.

    CASE

    WHEN ISNULL(B_Rev_TY,0.0) = 0

    THEN 0 --no need to calc the second part of the equation...zero divided by anything is still zero

    ELSE

    --another, inner case:

    CASE

    WHEN ISNULL(B_Rev_LY,0.0) = 0

    THEN 0

    ELSE (A_Rev_TY/B_Rev_TY) / (A_Rev_LY/B_Rev_LY)

    END

    END
