Simple problem

kesavadas_thekkillath — Fri, 21 Dec 2007 03:40:32 GMT

I have faced a small problem...but its irritating......

DATA:a type p decmals 2 value '8.75'.

DATA:b type p decmals 2 value '8.75'.

data:c type p decimals 2.

c = a / b.

here c must contain 1.

but for me its storing as 0.01.

what may be the problem.....Anybody faced this kind of issue...

u have declared c as type p decimals 2 so ur output is getting two zero places.

if u type c as type p. the output will be 1.

data: c type p.

Thanks&Regards,
