Yeah, you're right. I was thinking of the given expression:
NOOFTICKET= Sticket- Eticket=60
...which does.
Also, more accuately I meant that subtracting a char val with nos. in it, form another such will not give you an arithmetic result. To tell you the truth, because of the obvious ridiculousness of it, I'd never attempted to do that.
