I've run into these same problems and gotten around them by assigning
variables before the if-then test. Try this below:
var numprKnEx as number
var numprWarC as number
var prKESen as number
if (numprKnEx <= (numprWarC + numprKESen)) then
@valid=1
endif
If that doesn't work, do your addition before the test:
var numprKnEx as number
var numprWarC as number
var numprKESen as number
var numTotal as number
numTotal = numprWarC + numprKESen
if (numprKnEx <= numTotal) then
@valid=1
endif
A bit klunky, but that seems to work most of the time. I don't know
why the other doesn't work (mostly I thought it was me getting the
syntax wrong) but this is how I've gotten around it in my FOW-rgmt
files I'm working on.
