This is what I did to convert, after first writing a script to modify
the source data. Long Int may be adequate except for the indices... but
who knows - the next Enron may trade 3 billion shares... You may
consider a Volume Factor field in the DB ... which can be even a byte
field or an Int16. However - diskspace is cheap, so no problem with
going to FP. I still think computations will be faster with Integers.
