Hi,
I started a table with a varchar filed of 11 characters for a column that
would hold data such as 0.27; 11; 0.6; 1; 5; 7.5; 11.2; etc
I wasn't sure if a 'number' field would work. Now I want to list the values
in this column and they do not list numerically, for example: if we had
0.27; 0.6; 1; 5; 7.5; 11; then 11 would come before 5 and 7.5
(alphanumerically).
What I need is them to list numerically, so they would list like:
0.27
0.6
1
5
7.5
11
11.2
Any advice on what to change the field type to or how to convert it at the
time of querying via PHP would be great. Thanks.
Martin
