Hi,
Thanks a lot For the Help .
Iam still facing a problem and its like this
if d=2222222233 then mantisa is 22222222 its Ok
if d=2222222288 then mantisa is 22222223 thatis in
mantisa it rounds the number .now in this
circumstances even if I follow the solution suggested
by u result will be very different.
If u can send me then please send me the Whole rotine
to convert double to a Sting.
Your Reply will be a great HELP to me.
Thanks
