Hi there,

The background:
- Use ADO to access a particular table from an Oracle database, with these 2
components: TADOConnection and TADOTable (this works fine as I can see
records both in design and run time using a TDBGrid component together with
a TDatasource component)

The goal:
- add a TClientDataset (in design time) component in order to get XML data
(in DataPacket format) for further processing
- I right-click the TClientDataset component and select 'assign data', then
I select the ADOTable1 (the TADOTable component)...

The problem:
- I get the message "Overflow while converting variant type (decimal) into
type (currency)"

Thanks for any help

Joćo
