Currency to string conversion is handled in other way that float
types. In original example extended type was used....
Yury, you are right! I never spotted that, thanks.
Running the example program below shows the difference in output. The
currency type rounds to 0.01 and the extended type rounds to 0.00.
Either way, I still believe this is a bug in FormatFloat.
Test system is a Intel Pentium 4 processor running Windows 2000 and Linux.

writeln(c:0:2);

end.
