Jerry,
Please, read my previous e-mail carefully. I didn't write that you can't
do any calculations beyond 15 digits. I wrote that calculations aren't
reliable beyond 15 digits. I made a general statement. You will find a
similar statement in the LiveCode manual.

Nope. In the message box try 999999999999999+111111111111111 which gives you a
correct 16 digit sum of two 15 digit numbers. The limit is not in decimal digit
count. The math is binary.
