TOracleSession TimeStampAsString

[nicofari]

What does, in TOracleSession.Preferences,
the TimeStampAsString option do (it seems missing in the manual and help)?

This property is indeed missing. We'll add it.

When enabled, Oracle timestamp fields (not date fields) will be returned as strings, formatted according to the NLS_TIMESTAMP settings.

When disabled, Oracle timestamp fields are returned as TDateTime fields in a TOracleDataSet, and as a TimestampField in a TOracleQuery. The TimestampField function returns a TOracleTimestamp instance.
