Creating a decimal field

This was what I needed. Thank you. Susan

First of all, 0.5 is not less than zero. It is less than 1. Second, check
the field size property of your field. Is it set to Long Integer? If so,
change it to Double.

I've created a number field as General and 1 decimal point but whenever I
enter a value that is less than 0, it shows 0 vs the actual entry (i.e.
0.5).
How can I solve this?
