texte = OK. I know this sort of thing has been kicked around before, but I can'tfind a good solution in the archives. Maybe my search didn't find it, but...I'm trying to set prices for items based on the number of a particular itempurchased.Example:Buy less than 3 of ItemA and pay price1.Buy 3 to 5 ItemA's and pay price2.etc.I've tried two ways of using the Formulas.db to set price as follows:Name Formulaprice [showif [quantity]<3][lookupdb=mydata.db&lookInField=sku&value=[sku]&returnField=price1][/showif][showif [quantity]>2] [showif[quantity]<6][lookupdb=mydata.db&lookInField=sku&value=[sku]&returnField=price2][/showif][/showif][showif [quantity]>5] [lookupdb=mydata.db&lookInField=sku&value=[sku]&returnField=price3][/showif]I also tried:Name Formulaprice [showif [quantity]<3][price1][/showif][showif [quantity]>2] [showif [quantity]<6][price2][/showif][/showif][showif [quantity]>5][price3][/showif]The first one (with lookups) always returns price1 for ItemA no matter howmany are in the cart.The second one always shows a price of $0 for each item in the cart.Using a subtractive solution to reduce prices in the Invoice isn'tpractical in this case.Any leads?Thanks,Glenn-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .To unsubscribe, E-mail to: To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to Web Archive of this list is at: http://search.smithmicro.com/ Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
