Thanks for the reply. No I haven't tried that.

The layer of software that does the database interaction has no idea
about the field type and it's special requirements - nor do I want it to.

Instead I'm just going to change the field type to a decimal - which I
basically decided to do yesterday. I was mainly posting here in case
someone with some spare time felt motivated to fix it ... as I
indicated, I believe this is a bug. I would consider doing it myself,
but I don't have *any* spare time at the moment, and I'm not overly
interested in SQL Server or FreeTDS. I'll just make a note in my project
that this particular module is not compatible with 'money' types in SQL
Server and leave it at that.

Thanks again for the reply.

Dan
