Decimal placement

[Guest]

I need to take a column of numbers and simply remove the decimal point. I
need to have zero's or a number to hold the space of the ones and tens place.

I have a column of numbers where I have changed the numbers to put zero's as
holders in the tens and/or ones places as needed to keep data integrity.
But when I run a replace 'the decimal point with nothing', Access just hangs
up. Is this a known issue? Is there a work around.

12.3 12.30
1200
14.45 14.45
1445
..99 .99
99
1.00 1.00
100

Thanks

As far as I can see from your examples you just need to multiply the
original number by 100. I'm assuming the 'want value in the first row should
be 1230.

You are right about the 1230.

Sometimes the answer is just too simple. Thanks. A few modifications and
it Works perfectly.

Again, Thanks,
