Is there any downside to hard coding it to some bigger number, such as 12 digits? That should be safe and trivial, shouldn't it?
Let me know, and I will write up bug reports.

Although the spreadsheet displays (and can display) a large number of significant digits, when this is written to a .CSV file the precision is pretty poor. Is there a way to increase the precision of the data in a .CSV file? To replicate, just open wavelet, display in a spreadsheet file, change the spreadsheet file to have more precision than 6 characters, and File/Export this to a .csv file. The .csv file holds only 6 characters of precision for each variable. Alan -------------------------------------------------------- W.
