Precision of a floating point number

Hi I'm RM beginner and have some trouble while loading the data to repository. I've checked the manual and forum but didn't find any answer which could help me.
I have a csv file with the data which I would like to load. The data consists of floating point digits with a quite large precision (about 10 positions after the comma).
RM recognizes some of the floating point-data but reduces the precision (instead 4.23027339409 I get 4.230).
My question: Can I somehow change the precision of imported data?

Cheers,
maurer

    Hi there,

    Sometimes what you see is not all that you get, see what happens if you set the default display differently ( Tools -> Preferences-> Fraction Digits or the like ).

    Onward through the fog!

    Wow! Instead of seeking simple solutions I tried to solve the problem which didn't really exist. Thanks!
