I have a TQuery that is built at runtime with the following lin es of code.

    this->Query1->SQL->Clear();
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("SELECT DISTINCT NP.FILE_ID AS FILEID, P.NAME AS PSPNAME");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("FROM PAYPHONES.PAYPHONE_NPCID NP, ");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("PAYPHONES.PAYPHONE_NUMBERS NI,");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("PAYPHONES.PAYPHONE_NUMBERYYYYQQ N, ");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("PAYPHONES.PAYPHONE_PSP P, ");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("PAYPHONES.PAYPHONE_FILE NF");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("WHERE NP.NF_ID = NI.NF_ID");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("AND NI.NUMBER_ID = N.NUMBER_ID");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("AND NP.FILE_ID = NF.FILE_ID");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("AND P.PSP_ID = NF.PSP_ID");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("AND NI.NUMBER_STATUS = 100");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("AND N.YEAR = :YEAR");
    this->Query1->SQL->Add("AND N.QUARTER = :QUARTER");

The ("AND N.YEAR = :YEAR");  database field is a varchar
and the ("AND N.QUARTER = :QUARTER"); is a varchar.

When the Params are assigend they are assigned as so.

    this->Query1->Params->Items[0]->AsInteger = StrToInt(this->ComboYYYY->Text);
    this->Query1->Params->Items[1]->AsInteger = StrToInt(this->ComboQQ->Text) ;

What I am wondering is when the bind is done does the the params get convereted to varchar since the fields in the database are varchar or does it leave it as integers?
