Converting Char Value to Integer in FOX

308 Views

Hello,

I am trying to use the value of 0FISCPER (i.e. 2006006) in a formula, so I would like it to be seen as a TYPE I. It is not a variable so I cannot use VARI.

The idea is to determine periods remaining in one year based on the value that was input by the user:

Period remaining = 2006012 - fiscper.

However, I cannot get the formula to recognize the value in the characteristic as an integer as well.

Please advise,

Thanks,

Cherie
