int device;

// this code works:
device = ADODataset1->Fields->Fields[7]->AsInteger;

// this does not:
device = ADODataset1->Fields->FieldByName("Device")->AsInteger;

This throws this exception:

" is not a valid floating point value.


I remember having this problem before, and worked around it by using the 
more cryptic Fields->Fields[] method, but this is driving me nuts. 
Anyone know what is wrong here?

TIA

Mike

Try

device = ADODataSet1->FieldByName("Device")->AsInteger;
