Re: Division by Zero Error

Thanks very much Mark, Herman and Mike. I am using the try/catch method you mention, but it doesn’t seem to work reliably. I’m probably doing something else wrong . . . I’ll keep trying. Thanks again for your time. Roger ___ use-livecode mailing list

Re: Division by Zero Error

I use the try/catch/finally method mark mentions if there is a chance of divide by 0 errors. That way, no need to predict, just try it, and if theres an error, respond accordingly. On Sat, Jul 8, 2017 at 1:08 AM, hh via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > -- d0 is what you
