So, I needed to increase the max size in the column, so I increased  the column from 8,2 to 9,2 with a  ALTER COLUMN [total_m] [decimal](9, 2) NOT NULL That works, now with SQL, I can insert a value of 1,000,000.00 into this column. doubleValue() should hold the million. When the application runs, it uses a stored procedure to insert the data  HOWEVER the save FAILS with the Error converting data type float to decimal from a stored procedure. Here is the basics of the stored procedure :  (I scaled this down to the relevant info:)  qq_SQL = "{? = call usp_temp_ins(? )}";                qq_call = this.getTheDBSession().getCallableStatement(qq_SQL);                qq_call.registerOutParameter(1, Types.INTEGER);	--// handle return codes                 qq_call.registerOutParameter(2, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);                qq_call.registerOutParameter(3, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);                qq_call.registerOutParameter(4, java.sql.Types.INTEGER);--  if (((Temp)p_Tempp.getObject()).getTotal_m() == null)                    qq_call.setNull(1, Types.DOUBLE);                else                    qq_call.setDouble(1, ((Temp)p_Temp.getObject()).getTotal_m().doubleValue());qq_call.execute();                ((Temp)p_Temp.getObject()).setM_id(qq_call.getInt(2));                row_count = qq_call.getInt(3);                ret_code = qq_call.getInt(4);                qq_RowCount = (DataValue)FrameworkUtils.mapToDataValue(qq_call.getObject(1));            }Any suggestions very much appreciated.   </description><pubDate>Mon, 28 Jan 2013 11:55:09 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Wadingman</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
