I need to read a decimal value from a temp SAVE file then use it as a variable for further process. I am using technique as -READ SAVEFILE &Var1.length. &VAR2.length. But I got error when the &Var contains decimal point. Any suggestion? thanks in advanced.
Here I use CAR table to illustrate my question. I need to compute the Profit as D12.2.
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
CAR.BODY.RETAIL_COST
COMPUTE Profit/D12.2 = CAR.BODY.RETAIL_COST * 0.10;
BY LOWEST CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE SAVE AS 'SAVE_1' FORMAT ALPHA
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = endeflt,
$
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN
-READ SAVE_1 &COUNTRY.A10. &COST.A11. &PROFIT.A12
-TYPE &COUNTRY ";" &COST ";" &PROFIT
My output has error of &PROFIT as : ENGLAND ";" 45319 ";" 4531.90FRANThis message has been edited. Last edited by: <Kathryn Henning>,
