How to utilize the mathematical function of PC-DMIS
Is there any methods or commands to get the average diameter of 2 concentric circles? I find it very inconvenient to do separate calculation using a calculator just to acquire this data (average value) whereas I do believe that the PC-DMIS3.2 software is powerful enough to do the task for us, users.
Thanks.

Reason: grammar
Then report the variable in a generic feature like T Miller said.
WARNING WILL ROBINSON, DANGER, DANGER, DANGER!
The example given will work JUST FINE.
HOWEVER, depending on YOUR naming conventions for the features, it may not work. Pcdmis will see - / + and * all as math operations, so if ANY of your feature ID's hove those 4 characters in them, it will NOT work.

Thanks Matt, I ***umed
that was known. Good catch.
Well, it does seem to pop-up whenever someone asks about math functions in variables, so I thought I would put it in, forstall the next round of questions.

The voice of experience. I got bitten by this one hard. Tried to be cute with names...
Also, do not add SPACES to names. Another disaster....
