I'm trying to calculate an average, but in my detail, I have record with 0 value entries. I need to show it on the report, so I can't just leave it out.

For example:
I have the following dataset:

Name Performance Score
Maria 0.00%
Richard 93.3%
Diana 94.5%
Molly 90.0%

I want to find the average performance score, but I want to leave out Maria entry in the calculation because she hasn't been inspected so it is not valid to include her score.

Here is my code:

DEFINE FILE COMPLETELIST2
ONE/I5=1;
END

TABLE FILE COMPLETELIST2
PRINT
TYPECODEDESCRIPTION AS 'Inspection,Type'
INPNUM4 AS 'Inspection #'
COMPUTE TINPNUM/D4 = FST.ONE; AS ' '
COMPUTE TITEMNUMBER/D12 = ITEMNUMBER/FST.ONE; AS '# of Items,Inspected'
COMPUTE TSATRATE/D12.2% = SATRATE/FST.ONE; AS 'Overall,Score'
BY LOCATION AS 'Location'
BY CREWLEADER AS 'Crew Leader'
BY INPDATE2 AS 'Inspection,Date'
BY INSPECTORNAME AS 'Inspector'
ON LOCATION SUMMARIZE AS 'AVG TOTAL FOR: ';
END


Any idea on how to do this??
Thanks in advance

World, i don't understand your code, but
in general, if you want to nuke 0 values in computing an average, try this:
DEFINE FILE ...
NEWVALUE/I8 MISSING ON = IF OLDVAL EQ 0 THEN MISSING ELSE OLDVAL;
END
TABLE FILE ...
SUM ... AVE.NEWVALUE AS 'average'
...
