Re: Arithmetic overflow

Hi Vladimir

I had to specify a precision of 30 for NUMERIC in some cases while in 
other a precision of 20 was enough. In my case a NUMERIC field was 
taking a default of 18 when precision was not specified. I am no sybase 
expert so I am not sure if you can specify this during sybase installation.

I am attaching my sybase/sql directory with this mail so that if someone 
else run into the same problem as me, he can use this attachment and 
avoid all the hassle.

Thanks
Aaron
