Subject: [IBO] Parameter Values Problem (decimalseparator changed)


> How to show the problem:
>
> -create a query with a currency parameter
> -set the paramater at design time to some value
> -at runtime change the decimalseparator
> -prepare the query
>
> Example:
> Parameter at design time='0.000' note the decimal separator='.'
> At runtime decimalseparator=','
> On prepare the query will try to set the design time parameters
> but StrToCurr will fail because '0.000' is not valid due to the new
> decimalseparator ','.
>
> Solutions:
> 1)Don't use design params where decimalseparator will change
> 2)Use OldParamValueLinks.Clear before prepare
> 3)Modify SysRestoreParamValueLinks to change the decimalseparator
> in existent old parameters.
