Hi,
Here is an example and the results with question inline:
SET DECIMALS TO 6
ldBaseDate = {^1900-01-01}
ldCurrDate = DATE()
RAND(ldCurrDate - ldBaseDate)
nTest = RAND()
? nTest
nTest = INT(nTest * 1000000)
? nTest Why the number 0.031874 turns into 31873 when multiplied by 1000000?
UPDATE: As soon as I posted, I think I get it. The number 0.031874 is actually something like 0.0318738 and is only showing 6 decimal numbers. But the INT() truncates it. Right?
