Hello Michael & List Members, Thanks for responding. Figured out the problem about 10 minutes after I sent the e-mail, turned out it was further up in the script where I assigned the value to this scaler.
I know I got a bit escape-happy, but after banging my head on this for an hour I just started escaping everything that moved trying to find my stupidity... ;) Again, thanks for taking the time. Happy Holidays to all! -- Best regards, K.L.
