Yes please. *+1* May I suggest, if not too exotic, to accept both strings and normal floats as parameters? I would typically use: ``` SELECT decimal_div(LargeNumberColumn, NormalNumericColumn, d) FROM t ``` where that first column contains BigNum decimal strings and the second references some column with normal values, like TaxRate or such. And possibly then: '123.4' < 345.67 COLLATE DECIMAL → TRUE Though a cast can easily solve these (at the expense of slightly ugly code). Thank you! Ryan
