Arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numeric?

My guess is that you're trying to squeeze a number greater than 99999.99 into your decimal fields. Changing it to (8,3) isn't going to do anything if it's greater than 99999.999 - you need to increase the number of digits before the decimal. Try decimal(9,2) or decimal(10,2) or whatever.

Try removing the "WITH (NOLOCK)" clause and retry.

Decimal(2) is never going to able to cope with 100 percent complete. Why are you using that datatype?

All of your decimal(3, 2) data types are the issue.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
