   I've been playing with MPL function that return the datatype of REAL, and they   
   don't seem to be working.  If I have a function return a REAL, it is always an   
   integer.  I have a global variable (Var TextReal : Real) and I assign it a   
   real number inside a function, but when when I assign value to the REAL   
   function, it always comes back as integer.   
      
   Var TestREAL : Real   
      
   Function Str2Real(S:String):Real   
   Var Ret  : Real   
   Begin   
       TestREAL:=5.6   
       Ret:=TestREAL   
       Str2Real:=Ret   
   End   
      
   WriteLn('TestReal='+Real2Str(TestReal,2))   
   WriteLn('Str2Real='+Real2Str(Str2Real('5.6'),2))   
      
   --------------------   
   The output would be:   
      
   TestReal=5.6   
   Real2Str=5.0   
      
   Also, there doesn't seem to be a Str2Real function.
