Jos, haven't tested this but something like:
* to find the NEXT higher number to meet the criteria
FUNCTION Blah
LPARAM   tnNum

lnNum = tnNum

If MOD( lnNum, 5) <> 0
    Do while not llFound
      lnNum = lnNum + 1
      If CEILING( MOD( lnNum, 5) = 0
          llFound = .T.
      Endif
    EndDO
endif
Return lnNum
HTH but Sergey will probably come up with a one-liner later! :-)
