Well I did try what you said( double and float), but still not right.
Finally I checked the parsing string to recText byte by byte, I found
out that the some of the begining of recText is blank space which
downloaded from
Sybase. So I just shift one byte if it is blank space, it works now.
FlpAToF(recText)
will not strip off the space!
Thank you very much for your response!

Subject: RE: Eric, please help on FlpAToF(Char * s) function!
You are going from a double to a float. You should probably declare Y
as a
double instead, although it may not mean anything here. The rest looks
correct. Is recText pointing to the right thing -- I mean, recText is a
pointer to a string, does the string number you want actually exist?
Try
doing it without a string but rather with a char array. I don't know if
FlpAToF can handle a pointer (a.k.a, it may manipulate the passed
variable
in place).

float Y[0];
CharPtr recText;
FlpCompDouble Stack;
Stack.fd =FlpAToF(recText);
Y[0]=Stack.d;
Sometimes it works such as 1.2, but sometimes such as 0.47 doesn't
work(return 0)even
though recText 0.47 draw on the screen.
