Problem with FLOAT in CW_FORM [message #16021] Tue, 22 June 1999 00:00

Hello!
Building a widget based fit program (IDL 5.1 / Linux) I encountered the
following problem: I use the CW_FORM widget to enter my initial values
of the fit parameter. If I type e.g. "0.350" in a FLOAT field, IDL will
work with "0.3499999940" or something like that. How can I teach IDL to
use the _exact_ value?

Thanks in advance, Steffen
