I figure if the Numeric and Decimal types are coming pretty soon, I'm
probably going to wait and see how they work. If it works according
to my docs, the Numeric will map straight to the Jet's Currency
type (scaled integer), and hopefully there won't be any quote
problems. That would be perfect. Thanks for your help guys, nice
job, and I look forward to this upgrade.
