Just wondering if anyone has a better way to work out percentage values.
Currently I'm having to append text to the number then use value
it works but seems kinda kludgy.
something like this:
PercentAddition=2
eq=value(PercentAddition)
if value(PercentAddition)<100 then eq=value("0."& PercentAddition)
if value(PercentAddition)<10 then eq=value("0.0"& PercentAddition)
percentValue=totalcost * eq
I've tried
set the floatprecision=2
eq=PercentAddition)/100
but it always returns 0.00
Any thoughts ?
