Dividing 2 ReportItems

Question

I try to divide 2 ReportItems FreeNumberField_14 and FreeNumberField_13 with the following expression:

=(ReportItems!FreeNumberField_14.Value / ReportItems!FreeNumberField_13.Value)

When running the report I receive the following error:

The Value expression for the textrun ‘Textbox82.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error: Input string was not in a correct format. (rsRuntimeErrorInExpression)

What is the correct way to dividing 2 ReportItems?

Answer 1

=Cdec(ReportItems!freefield1.Value)/Cdec(ReportItems!freefiled2.Value)

Answer 2

try to Convert it to Int,Decimal Or Number before you divide like this

=(CDec(ReportItems!FreeNumberField_14.Value) / CInt(ReportItems!FreeNumberField_13.Value))
