Re: Delphi 5 <> ADO

My problem is: Delphi say "Boolean" required, but always only Float is
given. Oracle only give float. I can't believe that this is an Delphi
problem.

It's not ADO, it's Oracle.

It sounds like you are talking about persistent fields from your
description above. Oracle only has a few basic datatypes: CHAR, VARCHAR2,
NUMBER and DATE. Yes, there are also BLOBs and you can define your own
objects.

NUMBER is a float and it is the ONLY numerical data type. Therefore,
anything based on the NUMBER datatype will always return a field type of
TFloatField.
