Retrieving 32bit Multiply Result

[mytekcontrols]

Hi Darrel,

I like your ideas about getting at DIV32 system variables, but I have a slightly different situation. How do I use a variable for the divisor that wont violate the 15 bit rule?

I tried the following example, but it don't work (I get: Error Bad expression):

divisor var word
dummy var word

dummy = DIV32 divisor

I really need the ability to alter the divisor via program control, and at times it will need to be bigger then an 8-Bit value. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Edit: Opps! my mistake. It does work properly with a word variable as the divisor, just so long as you stay with the 15 bit rule (32767). This is good news.
