Geoff,


The problem is that it keeps changing from version to version. I have
already changed all float fields on my 200+ forms twice to suit IBO.


This incarnarion is effecting numeric (9,4) and Numeric (12,3) and making
them into BCD fields. Thats a minor problem. The major one is that the now
the data in the tables is stuffed.

I have wasted half a day in tracking this down and patching it so I can
continue.
