Mike-

Those functions require data of certain type, so your relational column 
would have to be converted to numeric for most of those anyway. 

Creating a set of functions would get you there. You could then use 
comparison, numeric functions, etc and bonus-- 3rd party SQL tools.

AB_INSERT()
AB_SELECT_AS_DECIMAL()
AB_SELECT_AS_LONG()
AB_SELECT_AS_DOUBLE()
etc.
