    Append query dropping decimals

    Hi,
    I've got an append query, and the target field is set as a Double, but I'm still losing decimals when I run it (only appearance wise though... there's a related calc, and it's treating it as the proper number).

    Any suggestions?



    Thanks

    Perhaps you could give an example to help us visualize the situation.
    If it's only appearance, seems there is a format or default issue.

    The field size is double, format is general number, decimal places = auto, and no default value.
    It's populated by a query that takes a an hourly rate (Currency) x a number of hours (Double) x ([Percent amount] x 100).

    I'm wondering if it's just inconsistency with the fields, and whether they should just all be changed to doubles, maybe?

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
