B.1.4 Non-numeric Data in a Numeric Field

A new option on the Advanced tab of the AcuODBC Configuration property sheet enables you to indicate how AcuODBC should treat non-numeric data in a numeric field. Values you can indicate are:

To Select
Treat non-numeric data in a numeric field as an assignment error Error. This is the default.
Treat the first non-numeric character in a numeric field as the end of the numeric data (thus truncating the numeric data) Truncate
Cause the field to be returned to the application as "0" if the field contains any non-numeric data Zero

See Chapter 3 for additional information.
