Brent:
	I think it would help alot if you were to fully explain 
yourself.  I understand that there are security considerations here, 
but could you at least tell us whether you are casting this float into 
one of the int arguments or whether it is coming in via the variable 
argument list?  Please E-mail to me direct and I will help you with 
this problem.  It will be a simple modification I am sure.
