I have and it is demoralizing :( I have brought this up repeatedly at the User's Group, but I have been told that it cannot and will not ever be fixed. HLBL is all it is.... Now you could use the Newton-Raphson method to iteratively calculate a cube root, but it would be better to just us a calc block and tie that into the seq block. -- Patron saints in general are broadband connections to the Almighty - Michelle Delio, Wired News _______________________________________________________________________ This mailing list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by Invensys Process Systems (formerly The Foxboro Company).
