Forcing a decimal point from a pci

permalink

Hi all,

I've got a little PCI set up for moving the tool to a particular position and then calling a subprogram with some definied variables. Works a treat, except when I want to send the tool to a position with an integer.

So, this is a bit longwinded, but basically - if I use an ASKBOX in a pci, and type in 3.0, how do I make sure that the pci returns 3.0 and not 3?
