I am also very happy that you got this figured out! I very seldom work with floats. In my investigations, I found this: `use Config; # This should print 8 if on a 64 bit machine... print $Config{nvsize}, " float size in bytes\n";` [download] Might consider checking that as a sanity check that you are on 64 bit machine. I have no idea how to get Perl to do 64 bit floats on a 32 bit machine - but there is probably a way.	[reply] [d/l]

use Config;
# This should print 8 if on a 64 bit machine...
print $Config{nvsize},       " float size in bytes\n";
