Database Number Field Maximum Value |
Am wondering if there's any method to increase the maximum value for the number field beyond 999,999.
I'm trying to store numbers which can be as large as 30 million, however the max it allows is 999,999.. that said, I have it storing numbers higher than 10 million, it's just if I access the individual record, it changes the values for that record down to 999.999.. viewing them on the list though seems to be fine and the value saves through closing the database/client. the only issue is what the client allows the maximum to be set to. |

maybe change the field into a string and convert it back to a number as needed?

Yeah.. I've considered doing that, but have been leaving it as the last resort, as I dislike storing numbers as strings. =/
If no other alternative presents itself though, I guess I'll have to. *shrug* |
