**GetPercentile(** //value// **), VIRTUAL**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

| **GetPercentile** | Returns the specified //value//'s percentile relative to the StepRealClass object's boundaries. |
| //Value// | A constant, variable, EQUATE, or expression that specifies the value for which to calculate the percentile. |

The **GetPercentile **method returns the specified //value//'s percentile relative to the StepRealClass object's upper and lower boundaries. For example, if the bounds are 0 and 1000 then GetPercentile(750) returns 75.

**Implementation:**

The SetLimit method sets the StepRealClass object's upper and lower boundaries.

**Return Data Type:**     BYTE

**Example:**

** IF FIELD() = ?Locator                     !focus on locator field**

**  IF EVENT() = EVENT:Accepted              !if accepted**

**   MyBrowse.TakeAcceptedLocator            !BrowseClass handles it**

**                                           !position thumb to match:**

**   ?MyList{PROP:VScrollPos}=MyStep.GetPercentile(Locator) **

**  END**

** END**
