You can error trap the warning message with a conditional field eg
{IF {=A1/A2} "!Z*" "{=A1/A2*100 \# 0.0000%}" "0.0000%"}

Hi Duncan,
You can do this easily with a formula field instead of a formfield.
Simply press Ctrl-F9 to create a pair of field braces (ie '{ }') and
type: '=A1/A2*100 \# 0.0000%' between the field braces, so that you
end up with '{=A1/A2*100 \# 0.0000%}'. Then protect your document.
If A1 has 5 and A2 has 7, you'll get 71.4286% as the result.

Hi
I have a table (3 rows). rows 1 and 2 contain a Text form field,
both of which are Type = Number.
I then have, in row 3, a calculated field. (Formula = A1/A2).
I need to show the result a a percentage to 4 decimal places.
I am completely stuck.

Can anyone help please?
