numero = 38650
interpreted = N
texte = Sometimes the price is written to orders in scientific notation instead of a normal number and this cause problems inside the math tags. I have found a solution to this problem and I would like to know what you think.My solution is to use grep:[Text]num=[Math][Grep search=(e )&replace=*10^]2.6e 06[/Grep][/Math][/Text] [Text]num2=[Math][Grep search=(e )&replace=*10^]5400000[/Grep][/Math][/Text][num],[num2]It works either with numbers in scientific notation and with normal numbers.Is it OK?Regards, -- Marco Bambini Vampire Software http://www.vampiresoft.com------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
