I neglected to ask:
You did not mention what you would like done to a number with less than six
decimal places. Do you want them padded with zeroes?
I was in too much of a hurry to be the one helping someone else, rather
than asking for help, that I fired this script right off as soon as I could
test it. ;o)

Perhaps this is really clumsy, but maybe this will help. If not, the
others on the list will fix us right up.
until (length($a) - index($a, '.') < 8){
$a = substr($a, 0, (length($a)-1))
}

Hi,
I have a really simple question.I have two numbers
say $a = 1.559999
$b=1.5599999999
how do I compare them to exactly 6 decimals without doing a round off.I
used sprintf but it does a round off.
thank you.
