I need the EXC to return a % from teh total test, as well as MET, and DNM. I will then have the numbers charted below to show the percentage.
I cannot find a way to get the table to calculate the EXC (10) divided by Total Tests (50) let's say.
Have I just been looking at this too long, or is there not an easy way to do this? I keep getting circular reference warnings.
Thanks

What about simply inserting a column next to each descriptor and calculating the percentage in the new column, assuming the counts are bucketed in your descriptor columns.

Incidentally, I was wondering what EXC, MET and DNM were and a google search turned up another person doing something similar to you right here on this site, see link below.

I am sure that was me you found on google.
I figured it out.
Thanks, I just needed to step away for a minute and look at it again later.
