Look at the debug out, x_dec never gets down to 0.015, the last printout shows x_dec at about 0.020xxx. That is what it did here too, but x_dev=15 leaves x_dec at about .020, which doesn't satisfy the while, it (x_div) needs to be about 20-21 to satisfy the while. There is a nagation of x_dec, and a debug print to show it immediately after the first endwhile, and it is not being executed either. Is it possible to have varnames too long? I haven't noted a max string length in what I have read about named vars. > Incidentally, I suspect you could get the same result using the FUP[] > function: #<_x_div> = [ FUP[ #<_total_cut> / 0.015 ]] > #<_x_dec> = [#<_total_cut> / #<_x_div>] Thanks Andy, I'm always looking for a better solution & that just might be it. But probably not tonight, I've been doing property tax prep all day & am about beat mentally. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
