"Are you sure that you're not running into any "divide by zero"
scenarios? I would either do:
1) include a test for OSTKVAL *NE 0 in the QRYSLT
*OR* if you needed to include such records,
2) change the MAPFLD calculation to
'(OBSTKVAL/(OSTKVAL+0.000000001))*100'
(The actual value you'd use would depend on how OBSTKVAL & OSTKVAL
are defined to make sure it doesn't significantly change the results of
"valid" values. If you have a record where OSTKVAL = 0, then the
resulting OBPCT value will be 999999.999 or some such ridiculous value.
I'm guessing that last part, testing is yours to determine how valid
that is.)"
That is right Dan, there will be cases on which a "divide by zero" situation may
occur. Just for that reason, I just realized that I can't do what I want with
the OPNQRYF in the way it is.
