[Bug 12042] New: Native Windows ODBC: Firebird stores numbers in sientific notation using datatype decimal

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12042

Summary: Native Windows ODBC:Firebird stores numbers in sientific
                    notation using datatype decimal
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.56.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: msvcrt
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

The following applications and scripts were used on ubuntu 7.04 and Puppy Linux 
3.0.1 with the same results.

Firebird-2.0.1.12855-1 RDBMS
Firebird 2.0.0 ODBC driver
winetricks script from Dan Kegel
mdac2.5 or mdac2.8 per winetricks
Several versions of Wine, including 0.9.55 and 0.9.56

Using decimal datatype with Firebird on WindowsXP and Win2003 server records
whole and decimal numbers correctly in the Firebird RBDMS.

On ubuntu and Puppy Linux with either Linux Firebird or Windows Firebird
running under Wine 0.9.56 and either mdac 2.5 or mdac 2.8, whole or decimal
numbers are stored in scientific notation and lose the power.

We were able to work around this problem by using datatype float rather than
decimal, but some may not be able to change their database schema.
