Hi, does anyone have a routine to check the numerical input from an 
editable text box (lets call it edit_box) and then matching it to a 
list of 15 stored numbers for the closest match. I am using Borland 
C++ 4.2 and Win 3.1.

E.g.

Person types in number 516 -->--- Matching routine ------> Closest match : 520.

Thanks.

Tim.
