I'm having a brain fade at the moment, or perhaps it's a senior
moment.    Hopefully someone here can help.    An external device is
sending data to my website in XML format, which my site processes and
makes available to logged-in users.   It's worked fine for more than a
year, but for the first time, we have a value that is calculated in
the external device and has a recurring decimal value.     So now
instead of a simple value with 4 decimal places,  I'm dealing with a
value like '9.09090909090909E 106'

My CFC is complaining and throwing an error that it's not a numeric value.

How do I convert that 9.09090909090909E 106 to a numeric value that
the CFC will be happy with?
