	Looking at long strings of numbers and trying to figure out 
if they are thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions, or billions 
gets annoying after a very short while.  Microsoft figured this out 
and strating with MS-DOS version 6, all directory and filesize 
listings are formated with the commas--very nice, much better.
	So I decided to write my own function that would do this easily
for me (and you!).  So now you don't have to write one yourself,
just stick these in a custom header file and use 'em!  They're really
simple functions--no frills, no inane arguments, just what you need.

This is a small function set that will convert an unsigned long and a
double value into strings that are formatted with numbers. 
For example, the call:

IntString(12345)

would return "12,345" and IntString(123) would return "123".

The double version is slightly different.  It requires you to send 
the function two extra arguments: the whol number precision and the 
decimal precision.  For example:

DoubleString(12345.12345, 5, 4)

would yield "12,345.1234"

Since this isn't very much software, I'm not going to foolishly demand
royalties (but I can ALWAYS use extra cash! :).  Anybody with a minimal
knowledge of C could have written this.  I do ask that If you use these
functions (or a direct variation from mine) that you credit me with 
that work somewhere in your program.
	If you have optimizations, tips, tricks, better techniques, 
etc. and wouldn't consider it too much beneath you, I would appreciate
hearing your wisdom.
