HI Phil,

Good to here from ya,
Yes, a friend of mine, went up there for business, and took clients out to
eat. He got slapped with a meal bill of ZIM$ 1,600,000. Now that is scary.
Infact that is relativly cheap when converted.
They are selling Photocopiers-Printers, which cost R5,000,000. Convert that
to ZIM at the latest exchange rate, it changes every minute, is ZIM$
35,000,000,000,000. Now that will error out in dbase if I had to display
that as a number
OOPS

Robert
