Decimal vs Integer

I had two fields in a mySQL table:
cost
quantity

Both were of the type Int. I needed decimal places for the Cost field so
changed both to be Numeric
cost - numeric 6,2
quantity - numeric 11,0

Before when they were both Int I had an asp page with did cost * quantity =
total which worked fine.
Now I'm getting a Type Mismatch.

Any idea on why this is happening and how to fix it?

Thanks!!!
