Thanks for the info Helen - much appreciated.

The money domain is double due to dialect 1. I have yet to try dialect 3.
I have spent the hour(s) converting to d3, but haven't put it in the field
yet. Would love to get there someday.
Thanks,
Kevin

Yup. The Migration Guide discusses some of the issues of the shift from
32-bit to 64-bit integers as the underlying storage format for numbers.
These are clearly going to affect UDFs that fool around with precision.

>Is this a bug in V6.01 or

Not a bug - a migration pitfall :)

>should UDFs not be used in a Where clause?????

Not a problem as you have used it. Not a problem if the UDF works as
expected.

Is there any special reason why your MONEY domain is defined as a double?
