    ok I started off just trying to make an app
    to store people icq # and nicknames and ect.
    because my ICQ has and probably will again stuff up and I loose all my icq # and ect so I started building this app to help me out with help of a sample of a data base i found in my vb 4 32 bit example section, but I have come across a slight problem with a big problem i guess, if you put 5 or more numbers in the ICQ # section it has an overflow error and deletes that entry.

    and as all people on my icq list have more than 5 numbers in their icq # this is a big problem.

    So I was wondering if someone would let me send them what I have done through email and check it out??? and try to fix the error if they can.

    If someone can please email me at: [email protected] or
    reply to this message i would much appreciate it thanx.

    Sounds like the Field Type in your Database is Integer, which means its Highest value is 32,767 anything over this will generate an Overflow Error, try changing the Type to Long which has a roof of 2,147,483,647.
