Hi, I have an Access SQL query to convert String to Numeric, however it is returning whole integers only - not returning numbers after decimal points.
The table concerned has mileages in 000.0000 format as string, (it's data extracted from a very old database) however the SQL below is returning whole numbers only
E.g. 123.1234 (string) is updated to 23 (numeric)
The SQL is here.
UPDATE Route_Master SET Route_Master.MILEAGE_FROM = Clng ([MILEAGE_FROM]);
Another observation - after completing the query, the Data Type remains "Text", when I expected to see "Number"
Any help very gratefully received !
