Hello,

I'm getting the error "Unexpected Signal : EXCEPTION_FLT_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO 
(0xc000008e) occurred at PC=0xA4CB08" on the last line of the following 
block (which is adapted from my code):

      double dexp = 0.0;
      int DecimalDigits = 0;          //these first two are actually inputs 
to a function
      NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getInstance();
      nf.setMinimumFractionDigits(DecimalDigits);
      nf.setMaximumFractionDigits(DecimalDigits);
      nf.setGroupingUsed(false);
      String str = nf.format(dexp);   //BAM!

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Richard U.
