Re: decimals and variables
Cool. I'm in London. Was working in K-W for a while, but back in the forest city. I've always wanted to visit NS but it just never seems to happen. It looks beautiful. ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:342122 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Thank you. this worked great.

Re: decimals and variables
divide tx by 100 before using, rather than trying that trick with the decimal point. (this will also work better for the value of "4", which in your example would evaluate to .40 rather than .04.
