I don't know for sure.. but If you did not specify how many decimal places to have, or 
you specified too many/too less, then you
will need to trail 0's on your price. IE: 123.54 may be stored as 123.5400 in the 
database.
If you don't want this 'feature' redefine your column as type 'double (5,2)'
to give prices in 00000.00 form.

good luck.

Subject: Limiting to specific field value of type float


Hi,

I'm having some trouble with the following:

I have a sample table that has one record where price == 123.54, however

select * from gpl where price=123.54

returns an empty set. If I set price to an integer value that's also in the
table, it works. e.g.

select * from gpl where price=500

returns the proper results. price is a column of type float.

TIA.
Alec Solway
