Hi, What would an SQL statement look like that is doing an insert into an existing table with numeric fields? The catch is the selected data is being summed before being inserted. My query looks something like this: INSERT INTO @BPDSPFW SELECT PRPRTY,PRPSUB,PRPDES,PRODYR,PRODMO,SUM(ENTINT) FROM LIB990/GBPDSPF GROUP BY PRPRTY,PRPSUB,PRPDES,COANL,VNAME02,PRODYR,Prodmo The message I get back (Conversion error on assignment to column ENTINT.) indicates that the Summed field is not correct for the target. In response to the message I modified the query using the decimal statement: INSERT INTO @BPDSPFW SELECT PRPRTY,PRPSUB,PRPDES,PRODYR,PRODMO,decimal(SUM(ENTINT),9,8) FROM LIB990/GBPDSPF GROUP BY PRPRTY,PRPSUB,PRPDES,COANL,VNAME02,PRODYR,Prodmo This yielded the same error. Any thoughts? Note: The target field ENTINT has a total length of 9 with 8 to the right of the decimal. Thanks, Vance
