e.g.,
DIM variable AS DOUBLE
Then you can do things like
variable = 1.356291D200
For SINGLE, just change the "DOUBLE" to "SINGLE" (but SINGLE is the default variable type you get if you don't DIM them as something else or use one of the type suffixes ("!" for SINGLE, "&" for LONG, "%" for INTEGER, "#" for DOUBLE, and "$" for a string). However, with SINGLE precision numbers, the largest value is somewhere around 1E38 (10^38).
