While this is off topic, here's the answer.

What you are doing is having Delphi cast EDAXPos.Value into an integer. This
will work if EDAXPos.Value is some value like 10, or 15, etc. However, if
the variant contains a value like 'Hi! I am a value!', Delphi will have no
way to convert that to an integer, and will throw that exception.

Subject: [ib-support] variant types


Hi all,
Is there special treatment to give variant types with FB/IB? Delphi manual
says it can assign no problem. But when I execute this code,

DataM.AxlesAXPOS.AsInteger := EDAxPos.Value;

I get an error "Invalid Variant type conversion".

Does anyone have a suggestion on how I should handle this?
Thanks
Daniel
