Problem with units

Hi,

I'm having the following issue with the units in mathcad15:

L:=20.76m

Then when I go to repeat L later in my sheet it comes out as L=0.

Anyone got any ideas how I can solve this issue? I'm having the same problem even when I change L to Beam for example.

Thanks

Mike

On page 7 of 9 you have defined m as zero.

Try not to use varibles names which are units. Just call it m1 or something similiar.

No, have a look below. Can you post the worksheet?
