Check your SET ZERO setting. If it is ON, you will get 0. If it is OFF you
will get a NULL value.
It works this way in both DOS 6.5+ and Windows 6.5+

Subject: Is this correct operation
Greetings:
I do not believe that BRND is functioning properly. BRND returns a NULL if
its arguement is numerically zero. Can someone confirm this?
TIA Clarence
Given the following commands from the R-prompt.
SET VAR vpvalue REAL
SET VAR vpdigit REAL
SET VAR vpdigit = 0.01
SET VAR vpvalue = 0.1
SHO VAR vpvalue
0.1
SET VAR vpvalue = (BRND(.vpvalue,6,0.01))
SHO VAR vpvalue
0.1
SET VAR vpvalue = 0.0
0.
SET VAR vpvalue = (BRND(.vpvalue,6,0.01))
SHO VAR vpvalue
-0-
PS: Version 6.5+ Windows Build 1.839xRT03
