CFMX 6.1: floats being read from DB are truncated?

Thanks for the feedback. I will look into the numberic datatype instead of float. In terms of NumberFormat(), we use this for display purposes, but what is frustrating is that in the course of a script we can get an incorrect mathematical result, and so we have to make changes to a number of
