Using Merge And A {TEXT}var~ Command To Add N |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: When using a merge and a {TEXT} Variable command to add numbers, users should not input numbers with a comma. If numbers are entered with commas the program thinks the input is a word. For example, {TEXT}1~enter amount made:~ {TEXT}2~Enter amount of extra:~ {ASSIGN}Total~{VARIABLE}1~+{VARIABLE}2~~{VARIABLE}Total~ will prompt the user for the amounts, but if the numbers are entered as 10,000 and 14,000 the program will treat them as words. The numbers should be entered as 10000 and 14000. The ability to input numbers with commas is a popular enhancement request. If you continue to receive calls on this, please submit the problem as a candidate for the Hotlist. |
