CONVERT Float to char

We have a table that was imported from Access to SQL 2000. For some reason
the old data had phone numbers set as Float. ? If anyone can explain that
I'd love to hear it.
Anyway, I have a SQL 2000 table that has a 10 character column called
Phone_No and when I perform the INSERT I get 7.12345+009. What can I do to
just get the 10 character phone converted from Float to char?
Thank you,
AnthonyUse the STR Function STR(F, N, R) ,
Where F is any numeric value,
N is integer total number of characters you want output, and
R is integer Number of characters to right of decimal point
as example
Declare @.F Float Set @.F = 8052080080
Select @.F, Str(@.F, 10, 0)
