Issues with spreadsheet string to array

Hi, I have a spreadsheet string (tab delimited) and I am trying to convert it into an array of double with 6 digits of precision after the decimal point. However, as shown in the attached example, the function "spreadsheet to array" is not giving me the desired digit of precision (only 2 after decimal point). I have tried almost everything and I am frustrated with this function. CAN SOMEONE PLZ HELP ME ??

I have no LV 8.x installed, so I can't check your Code. But it might be your settings for the indicator. In LV 7.1 it defaults to 6 significant digits, that means the reading is 12345,6789 but (only) your indicator displays 12345,6.
Right click on your indicator (Front Panel) and go to formatting.

Thank you Felix !  During my troubleshooting, I was right clicking the array and that menu never came up. Thanks to you, now I know that I have to right-click 1 element in the array instead.
