Anyways you can try adding '=' sign at starting of expression, if you have not added.

Hi Sunny

vMet has two variable it is sutituing vFcon-vFxe

[sunny_talwar]

How are vFcon and vFxe defined?

The syntax is wrong. There is an extra bracket before your second vcurrencysymbol-variable - and they makes no sense because both parts of the formatting are the same - and then there is a missing closing-bracket after the formatting. And of course it will be only work if your first variable contained something like:

num($(vFcon) - $(vFxe)

Another point is the $-sign within the variable-name. I have never tried if it will work but in general the special-chars respectively statements of a program should be avoided in any names - it might cause strange errors which are difficult to find.

Beside the invaluable usefulness of variables the usage could be exaggerated when applied to nearly each (part of an) expression. The use should be simplify things and not add a rather big amount of complexity or administration to handle them - just a suggestion ...
