Simple syntax problem

[Nancy Tietz]

Try:

ACC *TSUBFILE
SELECT IF THE-PERCENT = 25.00  OR THE-PERCENT = 2500
REPORT THE-KEY THE-PERCENT
GO


I think how it is defined in the dictionary is just how it's gonna look on a
report.  So I'm betting on the 2500 value giving you the data.  Good Luck!

Help!  all you Powerhouse experts:

This is a query from a trainee sitting here all alone and unable to find the
answer in the manuals.
Using a basic Quiz report:
If an element is defined as a float 4, and is defined in the Powerhouse
dictionary as being a 2-decimal point percentage, complete with % sign, how
do I test it for values?
I need to extract all items with a value of 25.00%  and I have tried all
manner of permutations of testing for this value.  Can anyone help me,
please?  I have run out of initiative and permutations.
I know it is just a simple syntax thing, but I cannot seem to get it right.
