we make inspections every week in three drugsotres, we check many things and we assign a number: 4 if the results are poor, 7 if acceptable, 10 if excelent.
at the end of the month we have four numbers for each topic, (EG. beer fridge: week 1: 7, week 2: 10, week 3: 10, week 4: 10) what i need to do is to add the four columns to get an total and then divide between 4 to get the average of the month.
how do i add the four columns and then divide between 4.

tha values are in the same acces database, in differnet columns

solved, used local variable:
<% averrev = 1 %>
then in repeated region
<% averrev = averrev *(((Recordset1.Fields.Item("1RA".Value) + (Recordset1.Fields.Item("2DA".Value) + (Recordset1.Fields.Item("3RA".Value) + (Recordset1.Fields.Item("4TA".Value))/4) %>

then posted in the total column my local variable:
<%=averrev%>

Another way of doing this would have been in the sql. This tends to be neater and easier to edit in future.

Example:


Select (1ra + 2ra + 3ra + 4ra) as Averrec
From yourtable
