appreciate some feedback.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=056565900-04062010>On my last SAC I
asked students to use a 2 digit code for stock numbers. We use VB.Net and some
student used 01,02 etc. I was looking for 10-99 inc. some of my top students
used 01, etc and will no doubt want to argue the point with
me.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=056565900-04062010>01,02 are fine as
text strings, but do they qualify as 2 digits when stored as
integers?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=056565900-04062010>What do you
think?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
class=056565900-04062010>Thanks</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
