Q: double scientific

[Geoff Jones]

Hiya

I've just discovered something when writing numbers in scientific notation
in source code. If you write something like

1.83607E-5

Visual Studio changes it to

0.0000183607

Is there a way to stop the Visual Studio environment from doing this?

Thanks

Geoff

/Only/ by turning off all the other clever formatting stuff that VS does
for you, reducing it to a [pretty chunky] text editor.

Or you could try

Val( "1.83607E-5" )

;-))

This question has been discussed in this group some weeks ago. The answer
is no -- there is no way to turn off this particular formatting feature
without turning off pretty listing.
