Hello,
Unfortunately I don't know PHP either, but you can consider using float instead of integer?
PHP: Floating point numbers - Manual

I'm pretty good with PHP, may I see the code you are using to define and store it and also the code you are using to display it. I will be able to help you much better that way.

Thanks,
Adam

sorry i haven't got back to this in a while, been rather busy, i have since fixed the problem by using a SUM query, thanks for the replies guys

Thanks for letting us know
