So again... from whence do you conjure $endingBal? :)

$endingBal is conjured from the database tracking the account balance.
For any 24 hour period the beginning and ending balance for subsequent
days is the same unless adjustments or payments have been made to the
account in that period.

2:35 AM balance becomes the ending balance for the previous day and
becomes the beginning balance for the day we are beginning.

Isn't it possible then that your data is out of synch between the
current balance and the previous day's ending balance?

See!!! I told you he was skimming the profits! Better check his desk for the "other" set of books! ;)

I'd suggest the int approach.

Yeah, I prefer to work with pennies too when doing that stuff. But
floats work much better when skimming... harder to track ;) Remind me
not to buy weed from Jay.

Cheers,
Rob.
