Front Page 2002 and SQL Query

I am using a very basic query in Front Page 2002 against a SQL table in
SQL 2000

SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE (f_docnumber = ::f_docnumber::)

and f_docnumber is a search form field.

When I run I get

Description: The precision is invalid.
Number: -2147467259 (0x80004005)

The field is defined in the table as numberic 9(10,0)

Any ideas?(webforcam@.hotmail.com) writes:

I have used FrontPage to author the articles on my web site, but I
have ot idea how you query databases from the tool. So maybe you ask
this question in a FrontPage newsgroup. That much I can say is that
the error does not come SQL Server, but from the OLE DB provider.
