populate a txtBox with 41. (nothing after the .)

[dogdays]

Access 2003 XP
I have a global string gstrEndLat, it is initialzed to "41. "
I have a txtBox txtEndLat that I wish to populate with the 41.
then place focus on the space to the right of the dot

gstrEndLat = "41. "
txtEndLat.value = gstrEndLat

Access, in its infinite wisdom, drops the dot and I end up with 41
I also tried 41.0 same result.
How can I do this?

Thank you Skaas. I changed the text box to standard and all is well.
