SSRS 2008 - Dealing with division by zero scenarios

Question

We\'re running into a problem with one of our reports. In one of our tablixes a textbox has the following expression:

=Iif(Fields!SomeField.Value = 0, 0, Fie         


        

Answer 1

On reflection, I feel best idea is to multiply by value to power -1, which is a divide:

=IIf
  (
      Fields!SomeField.Value = 0
    , 0
    , Fields!SomeOtherField.Value * Fields!SomeField.Value ^ -1
  )

This doesn't fire pre-render checks as val * 0 ^ -1 results in Infinity, not error
