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.
