Numbers...

If I do a query to the Oracle DB using SQL plus or an other tool, the value returned is 127.
When I use CF, the returned value is 127.0000000 (specifically 7 zeros)

Is there any specific reason for that? Shall I use round() or any other similar function to solve this annoying but not critical issue?

Thanks,
Ch.

Int might be what you want.
You can also try NumberFormat or LSNumberFormat.

I'd speculate that the true data type for the field is long or float so that's why you're getting the decimals. You can round it if you are worried, either with CF or right in the SQL query.
