The first thing to check is the culture setting: if his is not the same as yours, then depending on how you do things, you may get different results. If for example his culture is set to use comma as a decimal separator, then it could be assuming the dot is a misplaced thousands separator and ignore it.

Other than that, we need to see the code you use to load the text box, read the textbox, convert it to a number, and save it into the DB.
