"MOD" is not a general function, the help does not mention this message, it
can not be used directly, only used in ActiveX. Instead, you can use "fmod"
function.

The operator % does the same as MOD in Delphi.

So: 8 % 3 == 2, because (as you already know) the remainder of the
division of 8 by 3 is 2.

Good luck.
