Description

AdsSetDouble can be used to set values for numeric, integer, short integer, double, CurDouble, RowVersion, and Money fields. It is possible to lose decimal precision using AdsSetDouble depending on the size and number of decimals in the target field. AdsSetDouble will round decimals to the precision of the field in the table whose value is being set. If AdsSetDouble is used to set a Money field, the double value will be rounded to the fourth decimal.

Example

AdsTable1.FieldByName( ‘Salary’ ).AsFloat := 4.95;
