>> I suspect that something in the runtime has changed, and since FLOAT8 doesn't guarantee precision beyond about 15 digits, whatever change occurred passed validation testing. That has to be the answer, although I think you'll find it is a microcode issue and not a runtime one as-such. Coding a test in C or Java should confirm that it is not RPG related. It would be interesting to see if the same difference is noted on a box that has a hardware floating point unit - if indeed there are such animals these days. Jon Paris
