You can use either the standard float type or the OS1.0 float classes. I
would suggest the standard float type. Use the old float manager class to
convert strings to floats but you will have to write your own routines to
convert floats to a string (unless you want to use scientific format)
Search egroups for a bunch of float conversion routines posted previously to
this group.
