Is this a compiler bug in Lotus Notes 6?05/28/2004 06:56 PM
I came along a very strange problem
with the Lotus Notes 6 compiler today. Just to save time I tried to use
1024 * 1024 instead of 1048576. The Lotus Notes Designer Client refused
to save this with error "overflow". When using a variable containing
1024 instead of using the number itself there seems to be no problem. Weird!
Sub Click(Source As Button)
Dim
number As Double
Dim
a As Double
a
= 1024
' just to proof that Long is big enough
number
= 1048576
'next line will work fine
number
= a * 1024
' this would not work, why??
' number = 1024 * 1024
Print
number
End Sub
