hi, 

i'm struggling with the way Pd handles numbers bigger then 999999. 

i have an array with thousands of numbers, which i write to a file to
analyse them. 

however, as soon as a number is bigger then 999999 i get the abbreviated
notation and am loosing the lower digits. 

in Pd i can make a big number showing all digits by transforming it into
a symbol, e.g. with makefilename. 

but a thus created text-file does not work in a spreadsheet. 

probably there's a way to overcome this seemingly limitation, but i've
not found it yet. 

anybody with a hint?
