Nick, this is a pure Java question, nothing to do with XMLBeans really. You are using the BigDecimal(double) constructor; you probably want to use the BigDecimal(String) constructor. The phrase to keep in mind is: decimal representation of binary floating point value. See http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/math/BigDecimal.html#BigDecimal(double). - Wing Yew
