DIG command not working
Archiver
Posts: 46,084
Hello,
I know this has to be easy, but I just don't know which commands to use.
I am receiving a number from the Pak-II math co-processor. Before receiving
the number there were three digits behind the decimal point that were of
concern to me and that I want to display on a LCD screen, so I multiplied it by
1000 so now I can receive a whole number. Now that I have the number, I need
to display it correctly, so from the five numbers of this word, I need to show
only the first two numbers on an LCD screen, then a "." and then the last three
numbers.
I've tried to use the DIG command, but that seems to only work within Debug.
Please let me know if anyone has an easy solution.

The DIG command should work for you. Can you show us a snip of your
code?

After seeing your e-mail I experimented some more and added the DEC argument
into the mix and got it working correctly. Thanks.
