For example:
class-id myClass1.
method-id myFirstMethod static.
 01 myFloat float-long.
 01 myString string.
 01 myInt binary-long.
 01 myObject object.
 01 myDecimal decimal.
 set myFloat to myString   *> this is incorrect
 set myFloat to myInt      *> this is correct
 set myObject to myString  *> this is correct - string derives from object
 set myDecimal to myString *> this is correct - In the .NET framwork, the System.Decimal class has an implicit conversion operator 
                                                from type int (binary-long) to type System.Decimal
end method.
end class.
