Frank, V_subtotal1, V_subtotal2 and V_subtotal3 have to be set or evaluated first. Add a RETURN to the bottom. Then your code works fine. I tested the following: set v v_subtotal1 = 400 set v v_subtotal2 = 500 set v v_subtotal3 = 1000 set v v_subtotal4 = 2000 SET VAR v_subtotal5 = (.v_subtotal3 + .v_subtotal4) SET VAR v_1 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal1,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_2 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal2,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_3 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal3,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_4 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal4,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_5 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal5,'[>>]$9,999.00')) WRI .v_1 AT 15,70 WHITE ON BLACK WRI .v_2 AT 16,70 WHITE ON BLACK WRI .v_3 AT 18,70 WHITE ON BLACK WRI .v_4 AT 19,70 WHITE ON BLACK WRI .v_5 AT 21,70 WHITE ON BLACK *(END OF PROGRAM) RETURN ~Claudine :)

This is a retail pint of sale application, as item numbers are enter on to the screen running totals and sales tax is computer and displayed on the screen as each line is entered by calling and eep. Here's the code: SET VAR v_subtotal5 = (.v_subtotal3 + .v_subtotal4) SET VAR v_1 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal1,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_2 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal2,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_3 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal3,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_4 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal4,'[>>]$9,999.00')) SET VAR v_5 = (FORMAT(.v_subtotal5,'[>>]$9,999.00')) WRI .v_1 AT 15,70 White on Black WRI .v_2 AT 16,70 White on Black WRI .v_3 AT 18,70 White on Black WRI .v_4 AT 19,70 White on Black WRI .v_5 AT 21,70 White on Black *(END OF PROGRAM) The value of the variables are computing fine, but nothing is displaying on the screen.
