I'm passing few parameters from graph file to Excel report that are displayed in the header. They all work fine but one of them (PRVR) if PM has a value of 1,000,000 or greater it passes ********* to another report, if it's less it works ok. ON GRAPH SET STYLE * TYPE=DATA, FOCEXEC=app/rpt09.fex(P_NO = &DISPLAY \ QTR = &YQTR.QUOTEDSTRING \ PGVR = '&PDGP.EVAL' \ PLVR = '&PDLN.EVAL' \ PMVR = PM), TARGET='_BLANK', $ This graph is using 2 BY fields.This message has been edited.

Code indentation was not correct in previous message. ON GRAPH SET STYLE * TYPE=DATA, FOCEXEC=app/rpt09.fex(P_NO = &DISPLAY \ QTR = &YQTR.QUOTEDSTRING \ PGVR = '&PDGP.EVAL' \ PLVR = '&PDLN.EVAL' \ PMVR = PM), TARGET='_BLANK', $ | |||

What is the size of PRVR? If it's less than 9, you may try a DEFINE virtual field and use that in the report and the stylesheet drilldown. Francis  Give me code, or give me retirement.

PRVR is not a defined field, just using here. Also, PM, whose value is going in PRVR is a computed field in the middle of the code. That makes it difficult to DEFINE a field on top of the code that would contain PM's vlaue. If you can specify with an example that would help. Thanks. | |||

Try increasing the length of the PM computed field. Make sure its length is long enough to fit numbers above 1,000,000. Thanks! Mickey

I had PM as D12.6 and PMVAR would not show actual value beyond 1,000,000 I changed PM to D12.3 and it now passes all the values that I've seen so far. Wondering PMVAR has some default size set by WebFocus? | |||

To understand why that worked you really need to understand what the formats actually represent. Unlike some other languages a D12.6 doesn't mean 12 integer positions and 6 decimal places, it actually means 12 characters of which the last 6 are decimals and the 7th to last is the decimal point. So your maximum display in a D12.6 would be 99999.999999. Read the manual section on formats to get a better understanding of what you are doing and then you might be prepared for the intricasies such as this. T

I somewhat guessed that when I was testing different values. Thank you all for your replies. | |||
