Default In Access what expression do I use to average a field ignoring 0?

Consider stepping back and doing the selection and averaging in a query on
which you then base your report.

If you don't wish to include rows whose value in the field is 0, exclude
them from the query.

I have a report that calculates the average of a requested field. The
average
is not correct due to "0" values in some of the records. What expression
do I
use in the Control Source to ignore the 0 entries? I tried to adapt the
one I
use in Excel but did not get the results I was looking for.
Thanks for the help.
