Darren,

Try this.....  printf("%2.3f",x)

What this does is prints a floating point number taking up 5 digits.  In
this case 2 to the left
of the decimal point, and 3 to the right.   If there are more digits to the
left of the DP, increase
the number on the left side of the formatting string.  Ditto for the right
side.   Hope this helps.


Regards,


Jim
