Hi
I'm importing a values from an excel/csv spreadsheet and the decimal input value is 1.0999999999999999E-2 .
Has anyone developed a function which can handle the Scientific Notation where the input is 1.0999999999999999E-2 . and the output is 0.010999999999999999 ......
Unfortunatly the ABL 'decimal' function can't handle the Scientific Notation.
P.S. I am also aware the ABL's decimal data type can only store a maxium of ten decimal places.
