Generally, floating point works best for things you measure and
Numeric/Decimal
for things you count. Someone on the .NET list can probably help you
handle the
problem of getting scaled numbers back to your application with the correct
scale.

The problem is not with the locale, it's with the translation from the
internal
representation (integer with a scale factor) to the application data types.

Good luck,
