Some of our customers are not willing to do this. Can you show us exactly in what way you use MSXML then that problems occurs? Are you using DOM or XSLT? Show us the relevant code, relevant XML input and output. I am guessing that you have for instance <data>0.123456</data> in some XML input but you need to show what you do then with MSXML when you say "saves it as 12345". -- Martin Honnen http://JavaScript.FAQTs.com/ | ||||||
