This is because Pharo only accepts lower-case letters for exponent ($e
$d $q). So if you replace E with e Pharo will parse it as you wish.

Thanks all. �I took this solution as the simples workaround. I overriden this method in my Pharo image:

SqNumberPasrser>>exponentLetters

Now...a similar question is....is there a way to move Floats between Pharo and GemStone with SIXX without loosing decimals (no rounded)?

Sixx in Pharo exports Floats doing #printString. So for example:

5645.0000000000000000000000000786786 printString

-> '5645.0'

I loose info. So what is the alternative?�

Thanks,
