Have you tried instantiating it as a generic should be? For example, with Generic_Elementary_Functions; . . . package Float_Stuff is new Generic_Elementary_Functions (Float); use Float_Stuff; . . . If you've tried that already (which I use with Alsys Ada 5.x) and it still doesn't work, I hope somebody sends you the Tanh function you need. Hope this helps, Marc Bejerano
