No - you're right.

For reasons I won't get into my brain is not functioning correctly right now.

But that was not the cause of the issue as it turns out. The OP was passing the value on a job submit so it was coming in as 15,5 packed. And there was no code in place to convert it to an int.

Well an INT with a length of 8 should be an Int(10) not 20. So that looks like a pre-processor bug to me.
