Simple Decimal Question

[David Blomstrom]

Imagine a field with just two numerals, 250 and 2.8.
How would I designate that field if I want to display
them?

First, I tried decimal 3,1. It displayed numerals like
250 perfectly, but it rounded all the decimals off,
turning 2.8 into 3.

So I converted the field to char 3 and made sure the
cells in my spreadsheet were TEXT before saving it as
a csv file and importing it. But the results are the
same.

.5 displays as 1, 2.8 as 3, etc. What am I doing
wrong? However, I went into phpMyAdmin, and the
numerals look correct - .5, 2.8, etc. So why are they
being rounded when displayed?

Thanks.
