>I would propose that the field should be character and converted to numeric when calculations need to be done.
Thank you for your reponse Jim.
Changing the structure now from Numeric to Character means digging into code to see all areas that have been impacted - which is wuaht I may have to do ultimately. Actually, this field has no calculations at all - keeps me wondering why the previous person declared that field as a numeric one.
