Is there a way to adjust the decimal in the concentration field of the calibration curves in Agilent MSDChemstation E.02.02 to accept 100,000 and higher numbers as concentration?

Currently any number that large or above it will truncate to 99999.9999 and not allow it to calibrate. It seems the decimal point is fixed but it would be nice if we could adjust it to two places and use 100,000 and 200,000 as our high calibration points instead of needing to change units and divide everything by 1000 since for some analytes it would require them to be values of something like 0.0100 or 0.0001 instead of 10 or 0.1.

We currently change the units for the higher concentration analytes but the LIMS only accepts all analytes in the same test in the same units so these have to be hand calculated and entered separately each time. Changing the decimal point in MSDChemstation would be the simplest fix if possible.
The past is there to guide us into the future, not to dwell in.
Hi James_Ball,

If anyone knows this stuff, it would be Merlin Bicking...if you're on LinkedIn, you can find him easily--we're 1st Connections.
