title: How to insert a decimal value in DB?
body: <p>I am trying to insert a decimal no in db2 using the normal insert expression. After the execution of the query when i do a select for the particular inserted value , i get it as a result. </p>
  
  <p>But when i go inside the table schema and look for the inserted value for the particular element, i see that it is empty. Now while trying to retrieve the same value via java it gives me an empty string. </p>
  
  <p>The table is like this : with two decimal(18,2) fields.</p>
  
  <pre><code>insert into TEST values (153, 'test', 'test', 1, 1, 1.11, 1.11)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The select query :</p>
  
  <pre><code>Select * from TEST
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>gives me the actual value entered.
  But when i go inside the table schema, i dont find the entered inputs for the decimals.</p>
  
  <p>Can some one tell me where i am going  wrong ?</p>
