Packed Data type

Former Member — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 05:52:30 GMT

Hi Experts

I have declared the data type as follows

Data : amt type p decimals 3. * But its decimal places = 3

But in the result am getting only 2 decimal places.

what could be the reason.

Pls suggest me on this.

Hi,

just copy this code and activate this, execute this code.

Data : amt type p decimals 3.

amt = 50 / 7.

write:/ amt.

now amt = 7.143.Here, as you have declared amt as

Data : amt type p decimals 3 you are getting output as 7.143

hope this works.
