I also get different results depending on my SET FIXED setting too. Do you usually keep SET FIXED on or off?

Anyways, I never rely on this stuff. I always implicitly define how the output is to appear and I always use ROUND() when necessary.

I took a look. I can't find a SET DECIMALS or a SET FIXED in any of my code. No wonder this is all new to me...

Take care,
Joe
