Problem with widestring

[Maklom]

Hi there,

I am trying to retrieve data through a TOracleQuery from a table and receive the following error:

"Problem with field [blah] expecting: string actual: widestring"

The field in table being queried that errors is of type varchar2 and I have recently migrated from Delphi 2007 to XE2 and now have this error when I didn't before.

Is this a simple fix on the delphi side?

Hoping you can help...

Cheers.

The best solution is probably to change the persistent field types from string to widestring.
