Question : smallmoney to money datatype

I have a asp web prgram that was written for sql using a key called TIMEID. It is a time clock program and every entry recorded has a timeid with a time punch. It stopped working yesterday and through my troubleshooting I discovered the developer used smallmoney as the datatype for the timeid field. It reached its maximum number yesterday (214748.00) and the program gives me this message --Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e57'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Arithmetic overflow error converting expression to data type smallmoney.
/stimegreeting.asp, line 96

Can I simply change the column TIMEID to a money type? How will that affect my program. Here is the create script for the table? If I could do this, what would the alter statement be?

Answer : smallmoney to money datatype

I forgot to add the ALTER TABLE statements.

Greg

                       
             ALTER TABLE TimeSheet DROP CONSTRAINT [PK__TimeSheet__49C3F6B7]
 
ALTER TABLE TimeSheet ALTER COLUMN TimeID MONEY NOT NULL
 
ALTER TABLE TimeSheet ADD CONSTRAINT [PK__TimeSheet__49C3F6B7] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (TimeID ASC)
