Bruce,
>>After some further testing I came to the conclusion that the TRANSFORM function was pretty slow anyway. I decided to use to test the number of decimals and transform it onto character with the STR() function. To my surprise it was even faster than a single TRANSFORM function (more than 2 times faster). Since the routine i'm using is time critical, the solution I found is better than using TRANSFORM, even withouth the bug.

Well, I too rarely use TRANSFORM, but in this case I though it would be handy. Oh, well, this will let me think twice before using TRANSFORM again....
Walter,
