USING command ?

[paja]

Hi,

Can anybody explain USIND command ? In the help file is almost nothing.
I need format number in range 0 to 9999 to 0,00 - 99,99.

In the Help, see:  General Programming, then Formatting Output.  That is where the description is.

Hope that helps,
Bill

This works OK

def test:string
def test_1:INT
def win_error:window

openwindow win_error,300,150,260,250,@BORDER,0,"DEVICE ERRORS",&hndr

test_1 = 221
test = USING("0####", test_1)
print win_error, test

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

but this will return     0.00  - all digits zero

def test:string
def test_1:INT
def win_error:window

openwindow win_error,300,150,260,250,@BORDER,0,"DEVICE ERRORS",&hndr

test_1 = 221
test = USING("0##.##", test_1)
print win_error, test

I need format number in range 0 to 9999 to 0,00 - 99,99.

I believe this does exactly what you asked for:

Code Select Expand

int x,l,r
x=9999
int l= x/100
int r=x%100
if l < 10
print USING("0#",l)+","+USING("0##",r)
else
print USING("0##",l)+","+USING("0##",r)
endif
