[AccessD] Friday (You Know)

Wow!  Is this a candidate for your subtle bugs or what?

I never knew that and I bet not many other people did either.

Thinking about it, I actually have this problem on our Daily Cash Book entry
system - I will revisit it with this in mind.

Gosh, I learno soooo much from this list.

Actually that was one of my first columns. It had this message box that said
"The balance is not zero. The balance is 0.00". It all came about because if
you put in a credit (minus) value first, the result would be minus zero.
Simple enough to fix with ABS(), but until then I didn't realize that there
were two values for zero.
