just to make it easier on myself I'd reverse it and store 0.75 and 0.5 in the db field and let the code do the math on ouput where i need to display them as 3/4 and 1/2
then you could just use greater than and less than in your query where width > #val(FORM.Width1)# and < #val(FORM.Width2)# ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Grover" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2003 4:29 AM Subject: RE: SQL Question... > I don't believe there is a direct conversion available for your field. If you are using SQL 2000 you can write a function that will take your field, split it at the '/' and then do the math returning the numeric result.
