As some others have pointed out, when FB is allowed to convert from  
double to integer it makes some assumptions (and has too). I don't  
know if the application would allow it, but would it be possible to  
store real numbers as real instead of converting to integers?  Code  
like the following needs no coercion of any kind and delivers the  
expected result.

dim as double x, y
x = 1.15
y = 100.00 * x
stop str$(y)
