Ok I have another problem with some of the data. I did not notice this but
some of the columns where nvarchar data types and the math is not working on
them. I tried to change the data type to decimal but Enterprise Manager is
giving me and error saying it can not convert the data type.
The table I am working was imported and the data types were nvarchar but I
managed to change them to varchar data types but I need them to be numeric
or decimal data types so that the math will work.
Can any one tell how to change these?
Thanks!
