Hubert,

>From MS Access 97 help screen:

"Currency data type

A data type that is useful for calculations involving money or for
fixed-point calculations in which accuracy is extremely important. This data
type is used to store numbers with up to 15 digits to the left of the
decimal point and 4 digits to the right. The type-declaration character in
Visual Basic is @."

I've had to to stuff like multiply, round, divide to get around this.  Yukk.

Subject: Trouble with controlling decimal places in Access table
currency datatype


Hi,

I'm having trouble controlling the number of decimal places that is used by
a column in an Access table with currency datatype.  Although I set the
number at 2, I keep getting 4.  I'd appreciate any advice.

Sincerely,
