Hi all,

Can someone explain to me why this is happening please:

mysql> SELECT * FROM CustomerDetails WHERE Username=’blah’\G
*************************** 1. row ***************************
         EntryID: F83D4109-DCA8-426F-98B1-00B4AF117ACB
        Username: blah
   AccountVolume: 0
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> UPDATE CustomerDetails SET 
AccountVolume=GREATEST(CAST(AccountVolume-2865 AS SIGNED), CAST(0 AS SIGNED)) 
WHERE Username='blah';
ERROR 1690 (22003): BIGINT UNSIGNED value is out of range in 
'(`test`.`CustomerDetails`.`AccountVolume` - 2865)'

Using GREATEST, shouldn’t it be irrelevant whether AccountVolume-INT is 
signed or unsigned?

How would I go about doing this?  I have played quite a bit with CAST here, but 
I am not having much luck.

Thnx,
Chris.
