CVD                      Convert String to Double-Precision

 y# = CVD(8-byte-string)

    Converts an eight-byte string expression to a double-precision number.

   ----------------------------------------------------------------------

      Notes:    A double-precision real number must be converted to a
                string (via MKD$) before being stored in a random access
                file. To retrieve such a number, first assign it to a file
                buffer field (with GET), then use CVD.
