Thanks for your help Scott I appreciate it! I really gotta learn expressions more… So im not able to get this to work. Once I replace the slider with the one in my comp it seems to be throwing back an odd number. And when I move it up or down it doesnt seem to change the value. What could I be doing wrong?

This is a image of my graphic and my text layer. The code you gave me is throwing that number on-screen back at me. I also have it set to give me one decimal point.
I have the text layer parented to the graphic slider. When I move this slider up im trying to see if I can find a way to have it get to 24 from 0. Any thoughts? Im open to following any workflow to make this work.
