This is probably my fault :-)

The previous version used float conversion for numerics to string.
This has potential problems, particularly at the limits of the range.
Fp onwards use currency (by default) and I was forced to use ffGeneral
formatting (and not ffFixed) because the VCL formatting routine also
experienced problems when formatting with ffFixed.

Setup display formats for your numeric domains in the
TIB_Connection.FieldsDisplayFormat, and turn fetDomains on in the
TIB_Connection.FieldEntryTypes.
