[sqr-users] Error after Oracle update

["Fred Schiff" <fschiff@metlife.com>]

I've been getting this error after an Oracle patch update on our HPUX box.

Error on line 302:
   (SQR 6806) String2Em: String to Decimal Object Conversion Error.

This seems to be because fields which were type NUMBER
have now become type FLOAT(*).

Odd thing is, that the fields show as type NUMBER in the database still,
but an sqlplus desc on the table shows them as type FLOAT(*).

(We are still using the dread SQL*FORMS 3, so I think we have done
something
to either our TNS or sqlplus to use the version from Oracle 7, to enable us
to still run forms)

Any ideas?
