HI.
no decAmountDue is set to nothing.
and the decRentals set to it says in the project $1.8, but was having a lot
of trouble trying to calculate , so put it to 2, just to see, if it liked
that rounded up.
cheers Marvin.

ok, this is the line I don't get. the first two lines make sense:
decAmountDue = decAmountDue * decRentals
does DecAmountDue have something initialized before you set it to that? And
how are you setting your rentals? I would've thought rentals would've been
movies*rate with the discount subtracted.
Thanks,
