Wow. That is wild! I have never experienced where a column is one data type in a SQL server table and then changed to something else after CF pulls it... (Except for NULL of course, there is no NULL in CF)
Beats me! I can't imagine why this is happening... But, just for kicks... change that troublesome condition to: and qu_82_tb_89_split_0_split_T_Ht = 142.20 and see if it gets you anything.
