Maybe a review of http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/numeric-type-overview.html 
will help?

Subject: Changed Number


I have loaded a large *.csv spreadsheet into mysql and one number, the  
grand total, changes from 16996941 on the Excel spreadsheet to 8388607 in  
the mysql database.  The numbers surrounding this number are correct at  
all stages.  I have reloaded, checked formatting and done various other  
things without success.  Then I went to the text (*.sql) file in which I  
had dumped the mysql table, manually changed the number to 16996941 and  
put the text file on the server.  However, the number that showed up on  
the web page table and the number in the database on the server is  
8388607.  Note that the smaller number is just under half of the larger  
number.

This makes no sense.  Any solutions?
