IsNull use with a numeric ratings field

  • 1.  IsNull use with a numeric ratings field

    Posted 11-03-2017 06:21
    I'm trying to do a clumsy average across multiple numeric fields by summing the fields and then dividing by a simple sum of ToNumber(Not(IsNull())) of those fields (effectively COUNTIF not blank). 

    Problem is my numeric rating field (0-5), when no value is present, is showing up as not blank. 

    Any thoughts on this?

    To summarize:

    Numeric ratings field, values are: blank, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (default for a numeric rating field)
    Formula numeric field: ToNumber(not(isnull([default numeric field name]))) that comes up as saying 1 (is not blank) when the blank choice is chosen.

    Thanks for your thoughts in advance!

    Did you set the Rating field properties not to treat blank as zero?
