I have a cursoradapter with .wheretype=3 and a case where sending updates fails because of a n(10,2) field. The field is numeric(8,2) on SQL side, and n(10,2) in .cursorSchema property. The update statement looks like this:

update ... where ... and myNumField=0.57999999999999996 and ...

The value in the table is, of course, 0.58 and I don't know why does the VFP's parser convert the value into this IEEE equivalent and whether there's a setting somewhere to set it right. If everything else fails, I can switch to .whereType=1, but I'd rather not do that if I don't have to (as it would require using a subclass of the CA that I use everywhere and then still wouldn't fix the problem if it reappears elsewhere, where I can't use wheretype 1).

Anyone know a trick?
