Hi Khubaib,

the more I look at your code, the more I think that you must go back to the drawing board. For example the line

c3=LEFT(ALLTRIM(CHRTRAN(examcode,"0123456789","")),3)

strips out all the numbers from c3, which means that your Rep2 function will always fail unless the input is "annual". Since you don't have any OTHERWISE in the function, it will return .F. for most values, which is the source for your "Data Type Mismatch".

So, you must go back to the drawing board, sorry!
