This comes as a big surprise to me. I always thought the docs definition (http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/Internal_Data_Formats#The_Currency_type) implied the FPU wasn't used. I wonder how that didn't turn out on the rare times I used the Currency type. I'm glad I never worked with banking/financial systems :-$ -Flávio _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [email protected] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
