*DECK MPCDM
      SUBROUTINE MPCDM (DX, Z)
C***BEGIN PROLOGUE  MPCDM
C***SUBSIDIARY
C***PURPOSE  Subsidiary to DQDOTA and DQDOTI
C***LIBRARY   SLATEC
C***TYPE      ALL (MPCDM-A)
C***AUTHOR  (UNKNOWN)
C***DESCRIPTION
C
C Converts double-precision number DX to multiple-precision Z.
C Some numbers will not convert exactly on machines with base
C other than two, four or sixteen. This routine is not called
C by any other routine in 'mp', so may be omitted if double-
C precision is not available.
C
C The argument Z(*) and the variable R in COMMON are both INTEGER
C arrays of size 30.  See the comments in the routine MPBLAS for the
C for the reason for this choice.
C
C***SEE ALSO  DQDOTA, DQDOTI, MPBLAS
C***ROUTINES CALLED  MPCHK, MPDIVI, MPMULI, MPNZR
C***COMMON BLOCKS    MPCOM
