I see this behavior: Float can only have 7 significant decimal digits and all values between 0 and 1 are made to 0. Real, double, number and decimal can only have 15 significant decimal digits. I don't know whether longer values are not stored or they are stored but not shown correctly. Does this fit to your description? Regina 19:35, 15 October 2007 (CEST)
