Hi, I've responded to Daniel above who proposed the same solution. It does not work as I am summarising the calaculated column by 'Averaging'.

 

FORMAT breaks the code and I do not have the option to see a Summarised value anymore only Counts

Hi ArchStanton 

Dont change your existing measure
Create a another measure use 

Measure = FORMAT([Case Length (Adj) Mths],"##")

    Case Length (Adj) Mths is a calculated column not a measure

     

    It was initially calculating DAYS but I created a copy and changed the Parameter to MONTH earlier today

        Hi,

        Thanks for helping me with this.

        It didn't work initially because the Calculated Column is summarised as an Average.

        I removed this from the column, substituted SUM for AVERASGE and it now works with no decimal places ğŸ˜Š

        It's incredible that so much effort and resource is required to do a simple thing like this - maybe its something for the ideas board?!

         

        Thanks for your help!
