I have a listbox that looks very similar to this:
1                    Dave
2                    Paul
3                    John

I have a series of text boxes in which users can input numerical data-  I am

Trim as will would return 2.53 when i need 2.54.

I needed two array which are mixed type arrays so I used the Class Builder
