Me again, Sorry for the rtfm stuff, I googled around and found this: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=10719 and another thing, maybe worth a try; MySQL stores decimal numbers as strings...did you try to input decimals as string? I mean not: UPDATE SomeTable SET AmtOwed = 10.74 but: UPDATE SomeTable SET AmtOwed = '10.74' Bye, Balazs -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
