I'd be inclined to fix the rounding errors so you don't need the final
record, if at all possible.

I'm not allowed to send out actual code, so I have to cut out some stuff
and change the names of other stuff.  The code below is all I can share.
 
The problem I believe the problem is in the phases of QTP processing (I'm
guessing).

Tim,
 
I'm not sure what's causing the QTP error; I think you need to include more
of the program (e.g., the reference to LastOq).
 
Side issues:  Using  " * .01 " may be faster and/or more accurate than " /
100", and there's no need to ever multiply by -1.
 
Thanks.
 
David Morrison
