Unless it's a numeric field, in which case you'd want to use something
like these (MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle & MSAccess, exceptions as noted):
FLOOR(value) for the pounds (Int(value) in MSAccess) -- beware the use
of FLOOR on negative values, though
value % 1 for the pence (MOD(value,1) in Oracle, value MOD 1 in MSAccess)
Avoid string processing if you can...
