Hello!

I was wondering if anyone has a solution for a problem I have run up against.

I'm trying to figure out a way in VFP to divide two numbers and have the result be more than the 18 decimal place limitation in VFP.

As an example: If I was to divide 1 by 467891 and calculate to 50 decimal places the result would be: 0.00000213724991504431587698844388970935538405312348

But if I try to do this same thing in VFP the most I can get is: 0.000002137249915000

What I want to do is the same thing in VFP that is found at the following website (written in Java Script)

http://www.vsv.slu.se/johnb/java/divide.htm

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
Kevin Scott
