I think you're referring to ...\IBObjects\Tutorials\BasicTutorials\Tutorial1

if you change the fourth line in scrMain from
CREATE DOMAIN T_CODE AS VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL;
to
CREATE DOMAIN T_CODE AS VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL;
the tutorial will work.

For some reason IB6 insists to add '.0000000000' to all calculations of
barcode when using

( :P_BAR_PREFIX || ( :P_CATEGORY_ID * ( 100000 + :i ) + :i * 10000 + :i *
10 + :P_CATEGORY_ID ) ),

in the SP_GEN_DUMMY_ITEM procedure.
