Jason,

What do you mean not entering the data exactly at the right time.

The first set of numbers come in correctly, the last one always comes in
as a decimal.  I can not figure out what is going on. 

The numbers that I am entering all come from the following script:

#!/bin/sh
#
# version 1.05
#
#
# set -x

if test ! "$BBHOME"
then
        echo "$0: BBHOME is not set"
        exit 1
fi

if test ! "$BBRRDS"
then
	echo "$0: BBRRDS is not set"
        exit 1
fi

if test ! -d "$BBHOME"
then
        echo "$0: BBHOME is invalid"
        exit 1
fi

	   RRD=$BBRRDS/$HOST.connect.rrd

        x1=0
        x2=0

while i dont know all of the details, i would assume your problem with
the #'s going in as decimal has to do with the normalization of the data
because you are not entering the data exactly at the right time
