Weird results reading spreadsheet

I am reading an xls spreadsheet & the results I get back do not match what
I see in the spreadsheet.

The spreadsheet shows a value of 85.35 but the RPG code returns 85.349 The
field Discount is defined at 10,3 If I change it to be 10,2 the resutl is
85.34
The code I use is the following:

d Discount s 10 3 Inz(0)

row = SSSheet_getRow(sheet: 83);
cell = SSRow_GetCell(row: 7);
Type = SSCell_getCellType(cell);
If Type = CELL_TYPE_NUMERIC;
Discount = SSCell_getNumericCellValue(cell);
Endif;

In the spreadsheet if I increase the number of decimals to 3 it shows
85.350
Anyone have a clue on what is going on & how to fix it?
