Title: math with now() not working?
Post by: gappie on November 19, 2023, 07:30:09 am

i am wondering if something changed, because it seems like the math function does not work anymore with now(). i have a few fields that use this.

but doing

Code: [Select]

math(now()-1)gives a 0

used to work

If your system has comma as decimal point you probably need to wrap now() inside decimal() function:
Math(Decimal(Now()) - 1)

thank you, that worked. i guess i changed something on my system, since i never had to use that.
