[SOLVED] SQL Table Problem.....

[Verbat]

I need 1 of the fields in the table to save numbers in it, and it includes all kind of numbers like 100, 0.22, 5.67 and so on.

Now when i sort this field it shows the 5.67 first then the 100 and then the 0.22.

 

I tryed to change the Type of the field to INT but then it removes everything after the . so it shows me 100, 0, 5.

 

How can i solve this?

 

Thanks

When i make it decimal then it removes everything after the . aswell.

No it doesnt work with Varchar but i fixed it

All you have to do is use DECIMAL for the Type and Change the Length/Values to 10,2 the number after the , means number of numbers after the .

missed edit time,

 

select decimal where says Length/Values* types 100,5

 

that will make the 1st number max of 100 numbees long and number after the . 5 numbers long
