Hi,

u can use " Total" keyword in side the sum then we will get summation of that perticular entire column summation.

=sum(Total fieldname).

This expression u can use in second column, means where u want to do division.

Thanks,

Ashok.

What ashok said is correct (you will need to use total function). But his sample is for basic sum only since you didn't give any sample yourself.

Good luck
