Ray,

I replied originally to your message.  Here is the text again:

Both money and smallmoney in SQL Server have a scle of 4. Please check the precision and scale of your data in the table. This gives you a clue as to what it *might* get rendered as on a client. Globalization settings affect this, as does your machine's regional settings.

For the most part, if you want to guarantee that a value (any value - date/time/decimal/etc...) is a specific format always, then provice in your code that exact format.

Remember:

  visible data format != data storage

HI All,

I never read anything further about this issue.
However I could be blind and deaf as well as being ugly.

Having said that.

Does anyone else have any thoughts on Tony's question.

I would like to know for myself the correct answer.

Regards
Ray Hughes

Hi Tony,

I am not an expert by any means. My thought is that
the fields in question are defined as datatype "Money" in sql.

In sql I believe when it is defined as Money it is returned as you described "370.000" .

I believe that if it were defined as varchar then the return value would be "370".

Now again I am not any type of expert.

Regards
Ray

Has anyone noticed this issue in CFMX7?


When quering an Oracle table directly with TOAD results are return like
this.
query - Rows: 1 INVTY_FCST LKM_MILL LKM_MONTH LKM_YEAR SALES_FCST 1 4550 GU
2 2006 370



The same SQL inside CF returns data in this format (adding the decimal point
and the zeros as the fields are defined in the DB)



INVTY_FCST LKM_MILL LKM_MONTH LKM_YEAR SALES_FCST 1 4550.000 GU 2 2006
370.000



CF did not use to do that. Is that something new with MX7? Are there any work arounds? I now have ".00" showing up all over my site since upgrading
to CFMX7 recently.
