Access 2000 Inventory template
I am trying to enter decimal numbers in the Purchase Orders subform and it is
rounding the numbers. I have opened the Inventory Transaction table in design view and fiddled with a few of the setting to see if it was because of how the numbers were entered, but it didn't seem to change anything. Any suggestions? I need to keep track of items that are not purchased in whole number increments. |

Usually means that you have set the field length to Integer or LongInteger neither of which support fractional values. -- Rick Brandt, Microsoft Access MVP Email (as appropriate) to...

Originally it was set to Long Integer. I changed it to Decimal, changed the
Format to Fixed and set the number of places to 3. It is still rounding. I tried looking in the subform to see if there was something there to force the field to round, but I am not entirely sure what to look for.
