Even better... long myvalue = 1021888800000000002l; // add the lowercase letter L to the end

Try this instead long myvalue = Long.parseLong("1021888800000000002"); -Tim -----Original Message----- From: Benoit Jodoin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2003 2:52 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: assigning a value to a long type variable I know it might sound like a weird/simple question...but here's my problem : that's what im trying to do long myvalue = 1021888800000000002; this value is way smaller than Long.MAX_VALUE... here's the compilation error i get at runtime: Integer literal out of range. Decimal int literals must be in the range -2147483648 to 2147483647. long myvalue = 1021888800000000002; ^ there must be a way to do it?
