[DUG] Delphi5 - Real Data type

[Mark Empson]

Hi I have just ported an earlier Delphi version of some code to Delphi5 and I have struc a problem. The earlier program had saved data to a file with data types specified as REAL. I tried changing the type to REAL48, and although the record length was correct, the data returned was garbage. Is ther a problem with the backwards compatability of the REAL48 Data Type??   Mark Empson.
