I just do "select * from my_table". Table has about 40 columns. 2 of them
are decimals and they both come up as currencies.

Does anyone have experience of package files becoming corrupted.
I installed a component into D3 into the Delphi Users' Components package,
which normally works fine, except that Delphi just hung immediately after
the installation. The component in question was installed in Delphi when I

In a couple of direct print things I did a while ago I just got the length
of the text from a canvas and positioned based on that. It worked OK - the
code was dead simple.

Thanks Max, but this is from a Dos app so I don't have api or canvas
functions to measure text lengths etc.
I think I'll just flip from proportional to fixed font to do the numbers.

I can answer the Entera one easily - Entera doesn't exist anymore as a

This may be of some assistance - it is from TApplication:

I am meaning you can try
select convert (varchar(30), my_field) from my_table
This will comeback as string, and you can convert that to a Double. Slower,
but ought to work.

How ?
If I run a query 'select my_decimal_column from my_table' I get result set
with a Fields[0].DataType=ftCurrency.

I don't know if this is really the correct usage of spam but I'm doing it

I am wanting to execute an app form another app (in this case an Autorun

UNTIL the the app that was execute has finished?
Would I be best to look for the handle of the app ever few seconds, then
when its not there
We have developed the following procedure to simplify the use of

This will execute the program, and wait for it to finish.

When recordset objects go out of scope does Delphi clean them up? Is there
an advantage to explicitly setting RS objects to nil as done in VB?

Depends on how you get the RecordSet, and what the variable type is:
var
rs : OLEVariant;
begin
rs := ADOConn.execute("select * from blah");
//use it
rs := nil; //or unassigned?
end;
should work OK. If in doubt, step thru your code and use the CPU view -
there should be fairly obvious
Thanks Neven.
This simply means that Delphi developers cannot use MSSQL 7.0 decimal data
type. At least it is pointless, as money type is shorter than decimal, and
money is OK if no more than 4 positions after decimal point required. And if
more precision needed then real type may be some kind of

Delphi developers cannot use any BCD, Numeric type for anything other than
money for any database not just MS SQL
I'd be interested to see what happens with no decimal points
