Hello,
I have a problem with pl FPSpreadsheet on codetyphon 5.6 - win32.
If I insert a number in a cell, the number is automatically changed.
For example, entering 1.4 this is transformed into 1.399999999999999.
How can i solve?
thank you

Thank you Sir, for your interest.
The example in directory "codeocean/fpspreadsheet/sample/fpschart" generates the error described above. it is necessary to specify that this error was not present with version CT 5.2.

Sir,
You did not find the problem in example or believes that the operation is correct ?
why it changes only the numbers 1.1, 1.4, 1.6, 1.9?
I accidentally make a wrong setting?

Sir Sternas Stefanos,
I changed the precision in the row
Result := FloatToStrF(AValue, ffGeneral, 16, 16, fs);
//Result := FloatToStrF(AValue, ffGeneral, 20, 20, fs);
into the file fpsNumFormat.pas and everything is back to work.
what do you think about it?

Using double for storing floating point numbers means that some numbers like 1.4 can not be stored, but instead closest number like 1.399999999999999 is stored. Similar is for single, too. This "feature" can be hidden by rounding numbers, like you have already found. This is not FPC related (although some FPC changes shows this more often then before), as can be seen here:
