CF_SQL_DECIMAL v CF_SQL_FLOAT

[aliaspooryorik]

Does anyone know what (if any) the advantages of using CF_SQL_DECIMAL instead of CF_SQL_FLOAT are. With CF_SQL_DECIMAL you need to use the scale attribute to allow decimal places, with CF_SQL_FLOAT you don't.

I don't know the answer, but I always use the one that matches the datatype of the field in the database.
