Pass-Through Query Rounding Off

Good morning

I'm trying to SUM data in an Oracle database, and plop it into my table. I'm using ODBC through a DSN with the Microsoft ODBC driver for Oracle. The column I'm summing is a two decimal field, but when my query is done executing, I have no decimals.

I created a select query to pull the data, and an append query to apply it to the table, and the select query is what is returning the data as rounded. If I execute the same query through SQLPlus I don't have this problem

I'm accessing Oracle 8i through Access 2000

Thanks in advance for your help

Have you explicitly "typed" your result as ?integer before attempting to do
your update?
 
Is there a way to type a select query? If so, I accidentally did it somewhere. But in the pass-through query properties I'm not able to find that field

If I just execute the select query and look at the results in the datasheet view, the cents are trimmed off

Thanks for your help

Take a look at the CCur() function (convert to currency). You could make a
field in your select query into a currency (up to four decimal places) type,
and/or you could right-click on the field in your query grid and set the
decimal places to ?2...
