Default Pivot Table Special Summary

You could add the Values field to the Columns area, instead of the page area,
and it would show the summaries for each value.

It won't do calculations on the counts though, because calculated fields use
a sum of the underlying values. Perhaps you could add a new column to the
source data, and calculate a zero there if it's a failure, and 1 if not a
failure. In another column, add a 1 for each record, to act as a record count.

Add the two new fields to the pivot table, and you can divide the sum of
test results by the sum of test count.

Debra,

I figured that out while waiting for a reply but need something more robust.

The report has min, max and count already. I wanted to add field to count
the values that =4, the values that =3, the values =2 and values =1.

Then wanting to add (count of values = 1 or 2 ) divide by total count to
show % of records that failed.

I may be going about this all wrong but if you've got further insight, I'd
certainly appreciate it!

peace,
Kathy
