I have a column with the following values (example below) 5673 4731 4462 5422 756 3060
Are these numbers that will be used in calculations, or are they strings?
I want the column to display the numbers as follows: 56.73 47.31 44.62 54.22 7.56 30.60
Numeric(4,2) will do this. Also, whatever the UI you are using in your application can make the translation from display format to storage format.
I have been playing around with string functions but cannot seem to figure out a quick solution. Does anyone have any suggestions?
If they are strings, why not enter and store them with the decimal point? Rich -- Richard B. Shepard, Ph.D. | The Environmental Permitting Applied Ecosystem Services, Inc. | Accelerator(TM) <http://www.appl-ecosys.com> Voice: 503-667-4517 Fax: 503-667-8863
