That is why I was asking if somebody would know some gimmicks and tricks to cut up that formula using "trick tools" available... calculating that in small steps or something like that.

DIV32 is actually a DIV31/15. The maximum divisor for DIV32 is 15-bits or 32767
37234 is too much.
Yes true, but tricking around ... that was my hope but I do not how, so there I would have needed some help if that is usually possible at all to calculate small parts at time...

There's at least 3 decimals of precision you won't need, so why are the numbers so big to begin with? (rhetorical question)
Rhetorical or not, I know I'm stubborn ...

Really, test with Excel and skip the least significant digit (just one) compare with calculating with the calculation with all numbers and you will see that I'm not joking, at least with this matter ....

Let me open a whole new "Can of Worms", and suggest that you use the Microchip Floating Point Math module.

It'll handle your numbers.
It takes a little getting used to, but it works.

Thank you Darrel you really know things, not kidding.... :-)

Why couldn't this pop up earlier?(Rhetorical question) :-)
I downloaded those, took the example directly from that page and it compiled without errors. I will next play around with it and see if it is possible to solve "this" with it. If not then the "splitting" will be actual again....
