If so, check the data type in your database. Make sure it is decimal. If your form is not based off a database, right click the field in the Data Source Task Pane, select properties, and change the field to a decimal there.</p>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/31514.aspxMon, 18 Aug 2008 16:32:05 GMT033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:31514dkenne0https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/31514.aspxhttps://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=39&PostID=31514<p>I have created an InfoPath 2003 form and some of the fields have to accept decimals. I cannot figure out which data type to use to allow me to enter in decimals without getting the &quot;red box&quot; around the textbox. I can get one of two things to happen, neither of which is what I want:</p> <p>1. I enter a decimal and it shows the decimal, but a red box displays and I cannot submit the data.</p> <p>2. I enter a decimal, InfoPath rounds the decimal to the nearest whole number and the form submits properly. </p> <p>I need to be able to enter and submit a decimal number.</p> <p>Help!</p>
