well, you can convert to a string, take some substrings, then convert back. But I'm not sure what the purpose is. The aa part as a double would be 2 decimal places out of range at that point...

It depends. Are there always going to be four digits before the decimal? If so, you can do this.double aa = yourDouble / 100;double bbccc = yourDouble % 100;

Thats a pretty clever solution. Won't double add a load more number on the end like 1234324 though?

I have the same fear. Would it make sense to multiply first by 1000 convert to an int, and then do the divide and mod:

double yourDouble = aabb.ccc;

int myInt = (int)(1000 * yourDouble);

int aa = myInt / 100000;

int bbccc = myInt % 100000;

or what about just using decimals?
