floating point precision

On the more general subject of floating point precision ... see previous
post ... I guess that storing division results in an array would be as
accurate as vfp can get ... I mean as opposed as storing them in a cursor.
So I'm thinking of a routine that creates a cursor of lookup keys and an
array of long division results. The routine would seek the key and return
arrayelement[recno()]. Has anyone tried something like this or... do I just
need more sleep?
