It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 34679
interpreted = N
texte = OK. I know this sort of thing has been kicked around before, but I can't find a good solution in the archives. Maybe my search didn't find it, but...I'm trying to set prices for items based on the number of a particular item purchased.Example: Buy less than 3 of ItemA and pay price1. Buy 3 to 5 ItemA's and pay price2. etc.I've tried two ways of using the Formulas.db to set price as follows:Name Formula price [showif [quantity]<3][lookup db=mydata.db&lookInField=sku&value=[sku]&returnField=price1][/showif] [showif [quantity]>2] [showif[quantity]<6][lookup db=mydata.db&lookInField=sku&value=[sku]&returnField=price2][/showif][/showif][ showif [quantity]>5] [lookup db=mydata.db&lookInField=sku&value=[sku]&returnField=price3][/showif]I also tried:Name Formula price [showif [quantity]<3][price1][/showif] [showif [quantity]>2] [showif [quantity]<6][price2][/showif][/showif] [showif [quantity]>5][price3][/showif]The first one (with lookups) always returns price1 for ItemA no matter how many are in the cart.The second one always shows a price of $0 for each item in the cart.Using a subtractive solution to reduce prices in the Invoice isn't practical in this case.Any leads?Thanks, Glenn ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
