No, it's not spam! :-)

I'm just wondering if there is a data type like Money, but with
a (much much much) higher range -- checking the documentation,
it would look like PG uses an int (32bits) to store the amount
of cents -- but -21 million to +21 million is insufficient for
accounting of a small company... :-(

Float is out of the question, of course (if it is really stored
as a float or double).

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Carlos
