You know that using BCD (Binary Coded Decimal) is a rather old and inefficient representation, but it's still used quite often for commercial software and probably databases in this environment. As that's an integer-like representation also, it suffers no precision loss within its validity range as would any floating point representation. So for money people, floating point is a no-go in every respect. 64 bit integers should suffice for some time to come anyway. > TMSEIBCONNECTION instead tfb3connection resolves the problem also, but > is it safe to use it with Firebird 3 server? No, I don't (didn't) know that, but as I'm not deeply involved with databases, I had no need for such things yet. But it is good to know anyway, so many thanks for your information! -- -- (Weitergabe von Adressdaten, Telefonnummern u.ä. ohne Zustimmung nicht gestattet, ebenso Zusendung von Werbung oder ähnlichem) ----------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, S.
