Joe,

Here's the message you sent me about making changes to the database to allow decimal grades:

That discussion, which does not address forum grades at all, has the following message:

> I have mentioned the same issue and from what I can gather, you will

I did that before the term started.

Is there another change that needs to be made?  Do you have a change history somewhere of all of the changes that need to be made to the database?

David

David,
Have you made the db field setting change to allow decimal points?
