    Seems like I totally missed the point. Sorry about that... :blush:

    Okay, I'm lost on how you are lost. Please, what did you miss? It was your post that I based my response on that seemed to fix the problem.

    I thought of using ISNULL() as a replacement of NULLIF() which was a wrong recommendation for the given scenario.

    The solution I proposed can only be used to eliminate the division by NULL but not the division by Zero.

    Since the OP stated to have both error messages I finally figured that "I missed the point" (= did not consider all information provided & used the wrong function).

    Regarding laying the base for your post: All I did was extracting the code snippet I thought to be the root cause of the error. But my conclusion was wrong.

    But you isolated what was important. I took a quick look at the code and simply asked for table def's, sample data, expected results.
