Hi Carlo,

thank you for your reply, but like I said, I already read the vba help
summary and I really don't understand the terms used like "floating point",
etc. etc.

I was hoping for someone could explain in lay terms the difference between
the different data types that allow decimals.



p.s. in case anyone is pays attention to my picture resizing sub where you
only know the width, I caught a boo boo and here's the revised sub:

SUMFB.Activate
SUMFB.Cells(15, 16).Select '''VARIABLE PRM
Set pSketch = SUMFB.Pictures.Insert("C:\Documents and Settings\Olab\My
Documents\0- Wear Testing\Sketches\" & sStyle & ".jpg") '''VARIABLE PRM
With pSketch
PicHt = .Height
PicWd = .Width
.Select
.Width = 240
PicRatio = .Width / PicWd
.Height = PicHt * PicRatio
.Top = .Top - .Height + 1
End With
