Re: [amibroker] String problem or what am I doing wrong ?

["Tomasz Janeczko" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All numbers in AB are industry standard 32-bit FLOATING point
which gives you 7 significant digits.

See "Range and Precision table" here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754-1985

So you should use
YYYMMDD encoding instead (the same as DateNum() is using)
