Issue with measure return value - VALUE() - Cannot convert value '1.INF' of type text to type number

[RobertSlattery]

This has got me stumped: I have a text string that looks like a number but Value fails to convert it.

What am I missing?

Year% = var rd = FORMAT([Disp Promise Date],"0") return LEFT(rd,4)

Do you have a value somewhere in your list with a blank in column DispPromisedDate?

Hi @Anonymous, yes, I do.  I didn't think all rows would be affected by these.  Is this the case?

Yes they are. You'll need to add in a trap statement to watch out for non numeric values and convert them to zero.  There is a function called IsNumberic() that you can put into an IF statement to help you catch this.
