I believe %abs() returns a floating point. You might try wrapping it to
cast to int.
Weight = 10 - %int(%abs(lenpk - lenrd)); // or %inth() depending on your
needs

Subject: Field to small to hold result
I have the following procedure:
PMyProc
DMyProc PI 5i 0
D*
D Weight S 5i 0
D lenpk S 5i 0
D lenrd S 5i 0
C*=======
/free
.
Stuff
.
Lenpk = %len(%trim(FieldPK)); // gives 25 in debug : FieldPK is a db
field as is FieldRd
Lenrd = %len(%trim(FieldRD)); // gives 12 in debug
Weight = 10 - %abs(lenpk - lenrd); //Would have thought -3 but ....
crashes
.
More stuff
.
Return weight;
/end-free
Program goes into defib with the above mentioned error at the Weight =
statement
I thought it might be in the %abs(lenpk - lenrd) but I split that off as
a separate calc and it did not complain at it.
Any ideas?
