I am trying to get a case to work with the eval statement inside of a macro and have been unsuccessfull.

I can get this to work:

eval RTime = round(RunTime)

but I am unable to get this to work:

eval RTime = case ( RunTime < 1, 0, 1=1, 1 )

Try:

eval RTime = case ( RunTime < 1, 0, 1==1, 1 )

Could you please post the full macro definition (is it an "iseval" macro), and an example of how you are trying to apply it?

Thanks, but that did not help. I still get an eval error when I am trying to use the macro.
