So your say that the currency symbol is the stopper in all this... what a 
limited program this is!
 
I think you guys need to develop and extend your ASCII association table.  
Microsoft have an extended selection catering for pretty much 99% of all 
symbols and accented characters.
 
In my eyes (And I will test tonight) this is a lack of thought from the 
programmer.
 
Never heard of NetIQuette, is that a new programming language? is it in the 
English Dictionary so I might find out its meaning. Or is it a word in a 
foreign language?

    Darren,

    

    I've
      just tried the very thing and it worked. Maybe you simply mistyped
      your query. If it's what you wrote it's text, not a number. If
      it's a formatted figure, with a currency symbol, type the number
      in the query, without the currency symbol.

    

    And,
      by the way, you may want to remember the NetIQuette! ;)
