Subject invalid floating point nightmare
Author murmurrer@yahoo.com
I use IBO 3.6.
I have a table with a field of PRICE NUMERIC(13,2)

As a test I have created an app with only:

- TIB_connection
- TwwIBOquery (requestlive := true)

When I put in code:

wwIBOquery1.edit;
wwIBOqueyy1.fieldbyname('price').asfloat := 12345678912.12;

--> ERROR: invalid floating point operation


when i do:

wwIBOqueyy1.fieldbyname('price').asfloat := 123456789.12;

there is no such error

what's wrong with this code?
