I have a series of numbers with up to 9 significant digits after the decimal point and would like to truncate the character values down to 4 significant digits.

For example I have the following two values:

123.456789012
98.765432109

I want to return these values:

123.4567
98.7654

I can write a function to use something like ATC() to find the decimal point but is there a better way? Sergey, you will no doubt have something interesting and insightful so thanks in advance...:>)
