Subj:   Re: Why it is rounding the last digit?
 
From:   Hassinger, Bill

I'm not sure I agree that it is "no problem". Note that by checking the box in Queryman to allow accuracy above 16 digits returns the value as a character field. This may display correctly, but you can't perform further mathematical calculations on the results, and as noted in the Help file the values won't sort correctly. I reviewed this issue with a MS Access pass-thru query and this appears to be a Queryman problem, not an ODBC problem.

Although I don't know what is causing the problem, I think that there should be a better long term solution than dumping out character values.
