Not really the answer but...

Why w#ladj = *Zeros - dlsqty * dlstks;
Seems you want to make the resulting number a negative?

FWIW I would just do this:
W#ladj = (dlsqty * dlstks) * -1;


No need to multiply by -1; you just use negation.

   w#ladj = - (dlsqty * dlstks);

The main reason the compiler doesn't like *ZEROS in an expression is
because *ZEROS doesn't have a length.  The compiler needs to know the
lengths of all the operands to figure out the lengths of the
intermediate operands.
