I do not even recall if filePro will look at mid(@td,"1","2") as numeric 
thus being able to do math reliably.  That said, have you tried 
something like:

aa(2,.0)=mid(@td,"1","2"); aa=aa-"6"  ?????

This will ensure that mid(@td,"1","2") is a true number and should 
filePro change how it handles operations such as what you use, your code 
is in the safe ... no time bombs!!!

We all know /OV means "overflow" ... So, what happens if "04" is not a 
number but a literal string?

If you use it all the time and have it spread throughout your code, what 
results are you getting else where?
