How do I format a double???

[Dadi]

Hi, I know this is a pretty stupid question but how do I format a double
number to my liking. I.e. cutting zeros off at the back and so on?

Thanks in advance.

sprintf? Have a look at "Format Specification Fields: printf and
wprintf Functions" in your VC++ help.
