    The front end can only do so much to stop bad user action. We have some items which allow decimal places and some that don't. Our system has a check for that but only if the person who sets it up does so 'correctly'. Alas it is not done correctly every time.

    Agreed. With the idea of and simplicity of input data masking on the front end, I don't know why more people don't take advantage of such things for numeric and date/time "fields".

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
