Your original equations have mismatched parentheses.
#LY1=ABS(((.189+.185)/2)+((.110+.106)/2))) #LY1=ABS(((.189+.185)/2)+ABS((.110+.106)/2))) I counted 5 open and 6 close. Try this: #LY1=ABS( (.189+.185) /2 + (.110+.106) /2 ) ================================================== Fred Lauzus, CAM Programming Coordinator High Steel Structures, Incorporated mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.highsteel.com <http://www.highsteel.com/> ================================================== -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Michael Senack Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 8:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [mfg-smartcam] Variable help Hi all, In my macro I'm getting an "2601: Macro error in ..... cannot assign #LY1" error if I have my variable #LY1 (Line Y-coordinate One) defined as... #LY1=ABS(((.189+.185)/2)+((.110+.106)/2))) OR as... #LY1=ABS(((.189+.185)/2)+ABS((.110+.106)/2))) BUT if I define #LY1 as... #LY1=ABS((.189+.185)/2)+ABS((.110+.106)/2) it works! Is this because SC cannot nest more then two sets of brackets? Or is there a better way to define #LY1?
