I suppose you are using TADOTable

Tou can say myTable.FieldByName('field1').DataType or
myTable.Fields[0].DataType

if you need to perform a certain action according to the data type, you
can use a case statement and do your job

Hope this helps

        Subject:        [delphi-en] get column data types from a sql server database


Hai..
Sorry if this was a  crossposting, i'ts very urgent..
any idea how to get column data types from a sql server database?
i've found an article on
BDN http://bdn.borland.com/article/0,1410,29708,00.html<http://bdn.borland.com/article/0,1410,29708,00.html%29it>
it seems that
article answer my questions,but that is are delphi.net article and i
dont use  it.

To get column name from a table i use this routine:

DM.ADOConnection.GetFieldNames(TablesTree.Selected.Text,ListTables);

but how about to get field data types(string,integer,datetime,varchar
etc)?any idea?
