I did the same and get a divide by 0 error on the "volratio :=vol(p)/avgvol(p,p-33);" line.

Dale: Someone (an airport firefighter, curiously enough) at the TA-a-thon in Cincinnati (or was it Akron?) also ran into this problem during one of the late-night laptop gatherings. We fixed it by making it:

vol(p)/(avgvol(p,p-33)+.00001)

It's not beautiful, but it worked. When a scan won't budge, fudge with a kludge.

If you really want to know more about divide-by-zero errors, ask Spots. He's no doubt still regaling the denizens of Dayton (or was it Akron?) with tales of the indefinite. Ask him about aleph-null, the smallest infinite cardinal number. "To see a world in a grain of sand...."
