Q) How can I compute the anti-log of a number other than a Natural Logarithm? The *VFUN command only provides for the EXP (exponentiation) to the base "e".

A) Taking advantage of the relationship:

Ln( X ) = Ln( a ) * Log( X ) ||base a

We first convert the number to Natural Logarithms.

To convert a Log (base 10) to a Natural Logarithm, you would use the following:

*VOPER, ParR, < Log_Parm >, MULT, 2.302

Now that it is a Natural Logarithm, you can use the *VFUN EXP operation to compute the anti-log of these numbers.
