Hi!

 PL> (although that question was alot harder). I decided to use borland's 
 PL> function to convert a floating point number to a string and to find the 
 PL> digit set from there but for some reason borland only converted at most 20 
 PL> decimal places =(
 PL> Does anyone know of this limitation?????

 PE> No, but since they probably use 4 bytes to store a float, and 8 bytes

 PE> places.  20 is quite likely to be that limit. 

What about a long double? Shouldn't it be able to hold over 3000 decimal
places???

CYA!
