Hi,
I have a Access DB that has about 30 prices of products at present I am using a rather clumsy way to work out 10% of a product price.

<%
dim pcent, final, total

pcent = rs("item1") / 100
final = pcent * 10
total = rs("item1") + final
%>

In this example I have used the actual percentage value, in my app this comes from a user input form.

Is there an easier or better way to work this out?

TIA
Steve
