I'm not 100% certain but I've got a vague recollection that the update from 6.58 to 7.01 introduced better large number handling.  I could be wrong though as it's been a long time since I used it.

I've just read the readme and it doesn't mention it so I must have remembered wrongly.

Can't hurt to try though. ;)

My memory isn't failing me as much as I thought then. :)

I'm not confident of patching the compiler with experimental code. SAS/C 6.5x is a restriction at the moment.


Well if it makes you feel more comfortable, it's more stable than 6.58 was as I remember it. :)
