Calculating Averages by Sorting by field

8 New Member
Hi,
I have two fields in my report. One of them is school name(the school name appears multiple times). The other field is class test score. How would I go about calculating the test average for each school?

I can calculate the average of all the schools but am having difficulty coding some kind of sort procedure for an average test score of all the classes in each school.

Thanks For your help!

You have to Group by school in the query.

Add school to the sorting and grouping in the report. Right-click > Sorting and Grouping. Put the average in the group header or footer.

Does this apply to access 2002? I have been right clicking the report to get report design and I see no sorting and grouping?
Sorry for requiring elaboration.

I have 2003, I think 2002 has it as well but maybe in a different place. Try View > Sorting and Grouping.

Firstly, sorry for the long post, but I've included a fair bit of sample data. Im doing a comparision of 10yr Bond prices and CPI adjustments, with an 18 week moving average of the CPI. I'm using a nested sub-query to calculate the moving average, but I'm having difficulty selecting exactly 18 data points (ie When I include the 'HAVING COUNT(C1.Closes) = 18' line, I get no results). Can anyone help?

I've read most, if not all, of the posts on moving average and still can't find a simple solution to my problem (if a simple solution exists!) I have a table with 2 fields: Hours and Injuries.

Is there a simple way of A: using yet another calculated field in the query...

tblCourses one to many to tblEvents. A course may have an intro workshop (a type of event), a mid course workshop, a final exam. Or any combination. Or something different in the future. At the moment the printed output is usually going to Word. It's turning into an unholy mess, because I'm having to prepare umpteen different Word templates, and the queries that drive them, depending on what events a course has.
