I’m sure I’m missing something easy but I need to get a table value of 12345 to OBX.5 as 123.45. I’m having issues with it and can’t find my documentation of tcl fragments that would help me out.

I’ve tried a math DIV function but that only gives me 123 for some reason.

Any suggestions?

  In Xlate:
  
  1. MATH DIV

  Hi Corey,
  
  If you don’t care about trailing zeroes you can use
  
  MATH DIV
  
  InitialValue
  
  =100.
  
  Note the decimal point is significant in the 100. It instructs Tcl to use floating point instead of integer arithmetic.
