16 digit #s not retaining what I enter

Using Lotus SmartSuite 9.8.02. When I enter 16 digit numbers, it changes upon pressing return.

Ex: 1960092520030605 gets changed to 1960092520030610 (5 is added or rounded). Can the numbers be entered and retained as entered without the addition or rounding?

15 significant figures is the limit in R9.x (and Excel).

As a workaround, can you enter the numbers as labels? There'd be no limit then.

Otherwise, if you want up to 18 significant figures, you'll can "upgrade" to R5 (SmartSuite 96).

Are they still selling that version?

Lotus doesn't sell it, but you can buy it on the internet and at some used software stores. E-bay probably has it available.
