I am working on a windows program that displays results of a calculation in
a label an some of the results are to large or to small to display the entire
string in the label.
Can anyone help me with a routine that will convert the results into scientific
notation before diplaying them (ie. 0.00000000000001 = 1.0 x 10<sup>-14</sup>.
Thank you
Allen

printf(1, "%e", 0.00000000000001)
