Retrieves a floating-point value either from a bound place holder of a SQL statement or from a result data column of a SQL query. Place holders and data columns are identified by number.
ODBC.bdh
OdbcGetFloat( in cCursor : cursor, in sIdentifier : string, in nIndex : number optional ): float;
Either the floating-point value assigned to the place holder or the value retrieved from a fetched row.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
cCursor | Cursor associated with a database connection. |
sIdentifier | Identifier of the place holder or the result data column. To identify a place holder, begin this parameter with a colon. |
nIndex | Array index for the place holder or column item to be retrieved (optional). By default, this function retrieves the first item. An index greater than 1 requires the preceding OdbcFetch call to retrieve more than one data row at once by specifying the optional nArraySize parameter accordingly. |
