Hello All

Please confirm my understanding of data types particularly single and 
double. A single has a range of approximately -3.4e38 to 3.4e38 and a 
double -1.8e308 to 1.8e308. I am not exactly sure of the number of 
decimal places each are acurate to but i'm asumming it's "alot" for 
both. 

So now the question - given that most applications that i deal with 
aren't splitting an atom and aren't dealing witn my bank account that 
has 10^38 million dollars in it, and that i have many tables with a 
feew million rows, for DB size purposes, i should not have any field 
declared as a double. 

Would you all agree???

thanks

Peter
