If you use FullForm[] , you will see that the other digits are still available... They only aren't displayed. To display them, use SetPrecision or SetAccuracy !

Above 17 it works as advertised. I am using version 4.2 on a Windows 98 machine. I did not have this problem with version 3.0 on this machine. Can anyone give me a clue what's happening? Warren Wolfe
