Hi,

I am trying to import a small table of genome coordinates
and am getting strange results from ImportSpreadsheet. 
Here's the file (tab-delimited):

group   species gene    chromosome      start   end
Spry2   mouse   Spry2   14      96929174        96933478
Spry2   human   SPRY2   13      74905027        74910002
Smad7   mouse   Smad7   18      75824908        75853511
Smad7   human   SMAD7   18      46246234        46277097

When I import it, the start and end coordinates have
changed a little. For example, the coordinates
for the first row have become 96929176 and 96933480,
respectively. The others have similar differences.
Looks like a rounding error of some kind.

I get the same results from both 4.2.0 on Solaris 8
and Win2000.

Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? Thanks
for any help.

Cheers,
Joel
