That solution is OK for ALL data types BUT the ones whish are represented in Floating Point and they are (for TP): real, single, double, extended & comp.

To explain more closely:

The Floating Point types store the binary representations of a sign, exponent & a significand. A represented number has the value

exponent
+/- significand x 2


Some external library written in C/C++ as PLB & FLL (because I need it both for DOS/Win) is solution, but I can't find it. (Please don't tell me to write it, because I don't do C ;)
