Thank you Thomas,

Yes, by an email Martijn mentioned me that the driver should be ready
soon. My problem is that I'm kind of stucked in my project with this
Numeric(18,0)-FmtBCD issue, since all my Primary Keys in all tables
are of this type and with this problem. I had them DOUBLE PRECISION
before, but to avoid the precision or rounding problems I switched to
Numeric(18,0) which gets the GUID I generate from Delphi for every
record OID. Changing the OID type again would be painful...

Regards,
Guillermo
