Thanks for the feedback Pete -- actually it turned out to be a line in the DAO object that was doing the rounding. I figured when I couldn't find anything on the web that it must be my typical dumb error and not something common.
However the part I mention in my first response is still valid, where "Number(textInput.text)" is different from "txtInput.text as Number". The "as Number" cast does round off the value to the nearest integer. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, "Peter Farland" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Sorry I missed this post originally, is there any chance that you could > email me a small test case directly...
