Scott:

Can tasks evaluate a double precision number? I have a property value (alphnum) set by a script where the variable in the script is double precision. If I use a task to evaluate if the value is greater than, say 0.250, the task never executes even if the value is above this number. Should I mutliply these numbers by 100 and convert them to integers prior to populating a property in HB? I have to use double precision to arrive at the number because it is calculated from other similarly small values.

Alphanumeric properties are cast to integers when comparing, so you will lose the decimal during the test. If you use a numeric property value, it should work.
