Re: Losing decimal precision...

[Robert Rogerson <rrogerson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think you're right.  I think my example should haave been

D num1            s              7p 3
D num2            s              4p 1

/Free
  num2 = 12.3;
  num2 = num2 / 100;
  num1 = num2;
/Endif

Anyways what I was looking for was wrapping it in %Dec() as you 
suggested.  But like I said it Friday....

Thanks Vern and Alan and have a nice weekend,

Rob
