Manipulation of string array

[Benny007]

Thanks for the reply Ron.
I have tried to print out 38 from the string which I can if I use
SEROUT2 portb.2,84,[LAT[0],LAT[1],10,13] ' PRINTS OUT 38 FROM THE STRING (3810.7890)
IF I GO
DEGLAT = LAT[0] * 10 + LAT[1] 'DEGLAT IS DEFINED AS DEGLAT VAR BYTE
I would have thought I would have got an output of 38 when I used the following
' Instead I got 36
If I use the following:
DEGLAT = LAT[0] ' (DEGLAT) IS DEFINED AS (DELGAT VAR BYTE)
I = LAT[1] ' (I) IS DEFINED AS (I VAR BYTE):
SEROUT2 portb.2,84,[DEGLAT,I,10,13] ' I get 3€ Instead of 38

Thanks Benny007
