Tabish,
If you go to that link you sent me, and at the bottom of the page click on
the link for "Operator Precedence" (that link is:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa594120.aspx) you will see that
the % operator is listed as being at the same precedence level as * and /.
This is what I found confusing. Maybe that help page is wrong.
