The fate of EuCOM with gotos....

Sorry guys, couldn't resist!

Matt, I did some reading (based on the links you provided) on the
VT_DECIMAL variant for EuCOM.  The decimal variant is:

  type DECIMAL
        sequence   
        integer(SHORT_KIND)::wReserved   
        integer(BYTE_KIND)::scale   
        integer(BYTE_KIND)::sign   
        integer(LONG_KIND)::Hi32   
        integer(LONG_KIND)::Lo32   
        integer(LONG_KIND)::Mid32
    end type DECIMAL

How do you think the decimal value would be derived from Hi32,Lo32 and
Mid32?  Also according to what I read, a VT_DECIMAL can have up to 28
decimal positions.  Will this be a problem when converting to a Euphoria
atom that can only handle up to 15?
