I am having a problem using the %Sqrt bif.   When I run the program I get 
"attempt made to divide by zero" 

     D  Lfp            S              7  2 Inz(0)
     D  Lfps           S              9P 2 Inz(0)

     C                   Eval(h)   Lfps = %Sqrt(Lfp)

Lfp = 1.42 so I would expect Lfps = 1.19

I have tried replacing the %Sqrt(Lfp) with %Sqrt(1.42) & I still get the 
divide by zero.  This has to be something really obvious, but I cant find 
it.

Thanks in advance....
