lost information in translation text input tool

I have a analytic app where I put fx rates through the UI and updates the values in a text input tool.  The requirement is for the rate to go out to 9 decimals, but when the workflow runs, I get a "lost information in translation" conversion errors and reduces to 6 decimals.  Any ideas on how to prevent?  Pretty straight forward, but if you run the attached workflow, you can see the errors I get.

 

Thanks

Looks like you have a single whitespace after two of the numbers which is why you're getting the error message.

Bear in mind that the numbers shown in many places are rounded for display purposes - if you double click you'll see you have all 9 decimal places

Rats, it's usually something simple.  I'm disappointed in myself for this one.  Thanks a ton!
