[dba-SQLServer] decimal datatype is rounding

Hi All,

I have a table with a column of data type decimal with precision set to 10
and scale set to 2.
I add records to this table using an ADO 2.7 command object.
In the command object I create a parameter with type adDecimal and set the
Precision and NumericScale properties accordingly.
In the stored procedure I have a variable to receive the value with type
decimal.

I assign the value of 1.5 to the command object, execute the command object
and the value that gets stored in the table is 2.

Anyone know why this rounding is taking place?

For a temporary work around, I change the data type to Money in the table
and adCurrency in the command object.
For some reason this seems to work fine.

Thanks!
JR
