Byte limit! what is this like 1970? The punch card got stuck in the reader? I can believe what I hear about the programmers at Nordeus.

I didn't want to get too technical ;). Basically if they're using an SQL database there are a couple of types (well, maybe more) of number format you can define a column as. The basic type (which does date back at least 20 years) has a cap on the number of digits/bytes to save memory. And unless you define the column as "bigint" when you 1st create the table SQL defaults to the basic - as for most number field you don't need more than 9 digits.Quote:
