SYMPTOMS

If you set a custom value that contains a decimal on the Custom tab in the OLE properties dialog box, if you then attempt to view the properties in the Open dialog box (by clicking the right mouse button on the file name and clicking properties), the decimal numbers may be rounded or may contain more decimal places than specified. For example, if the number 1.1 is entered as a custom number type, the number is displayed as 1.10000000000000001.
