Moin,

I have severe problems in accessing fields of type "date" via
ADO/ODBC, and I cannot find a reasonable explanation.

A database contains a table with all types of fields. Using - for
example - MS Query to create a new query for Excel everything works
fine until I also select the date field. Then I will get a "incorrect
values in SQLDA structure -804".

This happens with IBPhoenix-Driver as well as with EASYSOFT-Driver.
I need to find the solution, because I plan to use firebird for my
future delphi-projects (Using ADO-Components in Delphi brings up the
same error as soon as a date-field is accessed).

Using Firebird 1.5 with MDAC 2.7 SP1

Any hint will be appreciated.

regards,
André
