Hi! This is my first post to the list. I've tried to trim it down to what seems the most relevant.
I am having a problem inserting into my database using the Firebird .NET provider. I am using Visual Studio .NET 2003 SP1 and thus the .NET provider 1.7 and Firebird 1.5, and I am coding in Managed C++. My table has two 1-character fields to store boolean values: CREATE TABLE FSBSRun ( ... Maintenance CHAR NOT NULL, Availability CHAR NOT NULL, ... ) I fill the parameters in my query and display a MessageBox to make sure the values are OK: // run.maintenance and run.availability are bool fields of a struct command->Parameters->Add(S"@maint", __box(run.maintenance)); command->Parameters->Add(S"@avail", __box(run.availability)); // Display parameters to verify they were set correctly System::Text::StringBuilder* message = new System::Text::StringBuilder; for (int i = 0; i < command->Parameters->Count; ++i) { message->Append(command->Parameters->Item[i]); message->Append(S": "); message->Append(command->Parameters->Item[i]->Value); message->Append(S"\n"); } System::Windows::Forms::MessageBox::Show(message->ToString()); command->ExecuteNonQuery(); The contents of the displayed MessageBox show the following values for the parameters: @maint: False @avail: False However, when it gets to the "command->ExecuteNonQuery();" call, I get the following exception: arithmetic exception, numeric overflow, or string truncation However, inserting the same values manually using the ISQL tool works fine when I just use 'F' instead of 'False', so I do not think it is a problem with the other (unlisted) parameters. When I use 'False' for those parameters in ISQL, I get the same exception. I tried creating temporary char variables instead of using the bool values directly: char maint = (run.maintenance) ? 'T' : 'F'; command->Parameters->Add(S"@maint", __box(maint)); char avail = (run.availability) ? 'T' : 'F'; command->Parameters->Add(S"@avail", __box(avail)); but I still get the same exception. Any ideas where to start looking for my error? I'm pretty new to Firebird and database programming in general. If I've left out any relevant information, please let me know.
