Hi, it's internally stored in full precision. It's only displayed in this format. Can't give you the place in the documentation, but I read it there somewhere.
 
"Format" - "Units" - "Precision" set decimal places as required

or, set it in your dimension dialog box
 
whoa .. I had given up on this one ;)

Thanx guys

I did some checking of the values and yes it does seem to have "internal" precision.

again, thanx for the replies
