All:

Has anyone a more elegant way to convert TEXT fractional values to DOUBLE decimal values:

SET VAR vHumpty TEXT = '7/8'
SET VAR vDumpty DOUBLE = (FLOAT ( ( NINT(SSUBCD(.vHumpty,1,'/' ) ) ) / (NINT(SSUBCD(.vHumpty,2,'/' ) ) ) ) )

SHOW VAR vDumpty  ... 0.875

Something in loco parentheses would be great!

Thoughts?
