Can anyone tell me what this error message might mean?
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0006'
Overflow: 'Clng'

I think its an overflow
You are probably trying to convert a non-numeric variable into Long

Yes, I've been looking at the error messages etc at MSDN and have got that
far.
It happens when I try to use a double type variable in a Cos or Sin
calculation. The reason I convert the number to be used into a double is
that the value is greater than : 2147483647, which is the maximum number
for an integer using the long datatype. If there was a way of expressing
an integer greater than 2147483647 I would use that but I cannot seem to
find info about this anywhere, as far as I am aware the datatypes are as
follows:
integers:
int: 32,768 to 32,767.
long: -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647.
floating points:
single: 1.401298E-45 to 3.402823E38
double: 4.94065645841247E-324 to 1.79769313486232E308
Am am I being really dumb here? I want to use a value greater than
2,147,483,647. (say 9999999999999999) in a cos/sin statement
ie: value = Cos(9999999999999999)
I aint no mathematical genius but I really don't reckon this should be too
difficult should it?

I think it might be because I am not converting to Radians, however, does
anyone know if there is a constant for 'pi' ?
