Fida,

Generally the *s indicate that the number is too large for the field. See if you can look at the particular data that shows like this in a browse window, or increase the width of the box and the number of digits in the format.

Either prices have really risen fast < g > or someone forgot some decimal points or something. Is this number multiplied by anything? The multiplier could also be a source of the problem.
