texte = I seem to be having a problem with an if/then/else context. Here is the code that is giving me the problem:-------------------------------------------------------------------------[text]discount_active=T[/text] [math show=F]discount_quantity=1[/math] [math show=F]current_quantity=2[/math] [math show=F]discount_total=6[/math] [math show=F]current_total=5[/math][if ([discount_active]=T)&([discount_quantity]<[current_quantity])&([discount_total]<[current_total])]-------------------------------------------------------------------------It seems as though the contents of the if/then/else statement AFTER the second ampersand (the third comparison) are not being evaluated. In the above example, ELSE should activate, as the third comparison is false, but THEN activates instead. If I reverse the second and third comparisons, then the new second comparison seems to be evaaluated, but the new third is no longer evaluated.Am I doing something wrong, or how can I get this statement to evaluate all three comparisons?Thanks for the assistance,Dennis ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
