Result = Date/100
Remainder = Result - FIX(Result)

OR:

Result = Date\ 100            ' integer divide "\"
Remainder = Result MOD 100

Try :

LOCAL Remainder AS DOUBLE
LOCAL Result AS DOUBLE


Result = Date/100
Remainder = Result - FIX(Result)
MSGBOX "FIX( "+STR$(Remainder* 100)+") = " + STR$( FIX(Remainder* 100) )

Im doing simple division (moving the decimal place) for my Date to Julian Function (thanks Lance) and I found a bug which I traced down to this (run example)

Could someone tell what the heck is going on?

#COMPILE EXE "Fuzzy.exe"

GLOBAL Date AS LONG
'¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤'
FUNCTION PBMAIN

Date = 991209

' Year& = 1900 + Date/10000
' Month& = FIX((Date/10000 - FIX(Date/10000))*100)
' Day& = FIX((Date/100 - FIX(Date/100)) *100)

MSGBOX( "( "+STR$(Date/100)+" - "+STR$(FIX(Date/100))+" ) * 100 = "+STR$(FIX((Date/100 - FIX(Date/100))*100))+" !!!" )

END FUNCTION
'¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤'
