    Getting the Average across multiple columns in a report

    I am trying to get the average of 2 different total columns to appear in a 3rd column. Column A is where i want the average to appear, B is total number of cases sold and C is the total Dollars. So how do i get C/B=A? Any help would be great!

    In a query,turn on sums,
    count(cases), sum(dollars)

    in a 2nd query, use the 1st query and calc the Avg.
