Floattoint truncating issue.

Hi Folks:

For example, I have a time series from 19961010 to 19961020.

When reading in as float, I get this (print-out):

(0) 1.996101e+07
(1) 1.996101e+07
(2) 1.996101e+07
(3) 1.996101e+07
(4) 1.996101e+07
(5) 1.996102e+07
(6) 1.996102e+07
(7) 1.996102e+07
(8) 1.996102e+07
(9) 1.996102e+07
(10) 1.996102e+07

To do a "floattoint" on above series, I get this (print-out):

(0) 19961010
(1) 19961012 "" (should be 19961011)""
(2) 19961012
(3) 19961012 ""(should be 19961013)""
(4) 19961014
(5) 19961016
(6) 19961016
(7) 19961016
(8) 19961018
(9) 19961020
(10) 19961020

The actual date should go from 19961010 to 19961020. How do I fix this
floattoint trancating issue?

Thanks,

Yi
