inserting negative number into a table

682554Apr 2 2009 — edited Apr 2 2009
Hi I am trying ito insert a value of -10.35955056 into a table with data type number (10,10) and this fails with oracle error.

i changed data type to float and when i try to insert I insert the record with no error but the value in the table becomes 0

I hv tried to insert the data again using sign(-1)*10.35955056 , I get Oracle 01722.

Any help please
