access thread: Inserting Numbers into Access database


Message #1 by "Sheri Martinez" <smartinez@w...> on Wed, 14 Feb 2001 02:41:46
I am trying to insert a number into an Access data base and it is rounding 

my number (example: 16.50 is 16.00 and 16.95 is 17.00).  How can I get the 

EXACT number to be inserted into the Access data base?

Sounds like either a display format or a field type problem--what sort of a

number field are you using?  What have you set for the Decimal Places and

Format properties?

How about changing your data type to double and set your decimal places?

Can you double-check to make sure the receiving field is set up as double 

and not as integer.
