Adam,

Not sure if that is completely true. Consider the following.

Done s 5 3 inz(60)
Dtwo s 5 3 inz(84)
Dfinal s 5 3
Drem s 5 3
C one div two final
C mvr rem
C eval *inlr=*on

When completed, rem = 00.024

Sorry for the misleading post ... I thought MVR was for remainders. I knew that DIV did both integer and non-integer division, but does MVR even mean in the context of non-integer division?

The RPG reference isn't helping me to figure out where .024 comes from in your example.
