I have a numeric field that will only take 9 digits. I changed it to "Double" but i'm not sure what that means. Is this the correct way to expand the field size?
Any Help Appreciated.

A Double (aka Real) may store values between -1.79769313486231E308 and -4.94065645841247E-324 for negative numbers and between 4.94065645841247E-324 and 1.79769313486231E308 for positive.
For nine digits integral{/b] values, a Long suffice, as it stote values between -2147483648 and 2147483647.
Hope This Helps, PH.
