ReportViewer Division by zero

问题:

I have some formulas in my reports, and to prevent divsion by zero I do like this in the expression field:

=IIF(Fields!F1.Value <> 0, Fields!F2.Value/Fields!F1.Value, 0)

This normally works fine, but when both F1 and F2 are zero, I get "#Error" in the report, and I get this warning: "The Value expression for the textbox ‘textbox196’ contains an error: Attempted to divide by zero."

Why is that?

回答1:

There has to be a prettier way than this, but this should work:

=IIF(Fields!F1.Value <> 0, Fields!F2.Value / 
   IIF(Fields!F1.Value <> 0, Fields!F1.Value, 42), 0)

回答2:

IIF() is just a function, and like with any function all the arguments are evaluated before the function is called, including Fields!F2.Value/Fields!F1.Value. In other words, it will attempt to divide by zero in spite of the Fields!F1.Value <> 0 condition.

回答3:

However, you can use

if Fields!F1.Value <> 0 
then 
Fields!F2.Value/Fields!F1.Value
else 0

which should work, since it doesn't evaluate the then clause if the "if" section is false.
