#211315 - 2016-04-13 11:14 PM How to get COS and or SQR
ShaneEP ShaneEP MM club member Registered: 2002-11-29 Posts: 2127 Loc: Tulsa, OK	Hello everyone. I'm needing to use COS() and SQR() to calculate some coordinate distances. I figure the easiest way might be to just shell out to the vbs commands. Is there an easy way to do this, and get the return value? I've tried a couple ways and am not having any luck so far. I know these are probably available in kixforms, but I can't currently register the dll on my work computer. Sure wish math functions could be added to kix.
