Rich,

In the last few days there was a thread discussing VIEWS.  Consider
the following:
  *  Did you use CREATE VIEW viewname (colnames...) AS SELECT
syntax?
  *  Were any of the columns in the VIEW expressions?

RBase may not be storing the datatype you expect for each columns
in a VIEW, especially if that columns is the result of an expression.
 I posted a SELECT statement which shows you how RBase has determined
the datatype for each columns in a VIEW.
If you havent saved that SELECT statement e-mail me off the list
and I will send it to you.
