FYI. If I'm not mistaken, these appear to be IBX components.

What you are seeing is a result of TDataset's floating point based
TNumericColumn instead of a fixed point type. I presume there is some kind
of BCD support with IBX but I am not sure how they do it. You can use that
or possibly use a DisplayFormat to keep things clean.

Perhaps you should ask in a more appropriate newsgroup on the Borland Site.

Good luck!
