Answer 1

Try making use of paranthesis and also add semicolon to the last statements of if and else

Numbervar t:=0;
IF({GLTRANDE.GLTYPE} =1 OR {GLTRANDE.GLTYPE} =5 )Then
(
WhilePrintingRecords;
t:=tonumber({GLTRAN.CRDIFF})-tonumber({GLTRAN.DRDIFF});
)
else
(
WhilePrintingRecords;
t:=tonumber({GLTRAN.DRDIFF})-tonumber({GLTRAN.CRDIFF});
)
