Hi,

if you have a data type that is already holding each of your two numbers, and asuming both have the same polarity, then that same data type can hold their difference for sure.

20 decimal digits is about the limit a long can hold; and it is beyond what a double can do. If you need more precision, you will have to switch to some "big integer" class; there are several around (of varying functionality and quality); there will be one included in .NET 4.0

Smile | :)
