Help- Sql Server and VB 6.0 application

[Tweetiepie]

Hi,
I am using an Sql server to hold the database for the data of the Vb application. In one of the tables i have a value which is declared as a varchar with size of 255.
When i reference this value to put into a text box it seems to rounding the numbers. If i enter in 2.5 as input.. this is saved in the db and then when i reference this again as the data for the text box it comes up as 2.4444444498. Is there a conflict of data-types between sql and vb that might be causing this? or is there some other obvious explaination which i cant figure out.
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks a million
