Thanks Bill. At this point I think it is a moot point since my Oracle folks are telling me it can only be two decimal places to get the file to upload into Oracle. I appreciate your help. I did learn something.

Editing the MSYS table is not really a good idea. It can throw off dependent indices. Edit the spec through the wizard. Just start an export and use that spec. Make sure you set the field to currency with decimal places = 4.
If I find a few spare minutes I'll see if I can reproduce this to find out what the exact steps should be but I think what I just said is correct.

Bill,
Here is an update. I found the spec in Msysimexcolumns table. The data type shows as 7 (double I think) I changed it to 5 (currency I think). Now the amount is rounding up to .38. I need it to export as .375. There is a validation on the export file before it gets uploaded into Oracle where the price is multiplied by the quantity. This record is kicking out because neither .37 or .38 match the total which was multiplied by .375.

Good morning Bill,
The field's data type was double. I changed it to currency but that has no effect at this time. How do I edit the spec? I can't even remember how I created it. It's been too long. :-)

Hi Doyce
What is the spec field's data type? Currency should hold 4 decimal places. You probably just have to edit the spec and save it as the same name.

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Export spec truncating number
Hello Pros,
I created an export specification years ago that has worked perfectly for about 15 years. It exports a table to a csv file. The table comes from invoice detail. Now for the first time ever, we invoiced something at .375 each instead of whole pennies. When the file is exported, the spec truncates the price to .37 even though the table shows the price correctly as .375. How can I fix this? I know the spec is hidden and I can't remember how I created it in the first place. I have googled this but have only found answers for saving exports. I guess I'm not using the corrct search terms. Here is the code I run to export the table.
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "ARInvoiceDetailUpload Export Specification", "tblARInvoiceDetailUpload", "N:\Accnting\AR Upload\RSI_AR_INV_LINES_" & Format(Date, "mm_dd_yy") & ".rsl"
Thanks in advance.
