happy newyear, here from Amsterdam.

An error-message: "invalid pointer type". Anybody seen it before?

Occurs when i try to enter a date-value in a column on a grid. The
column is of TdxDBGridDateColumn type (from DevExpress) and referring to
a field of TDateTimeField type. The field has an EditMask defined.
It appears to happen only when my data (module) accesses a SQL-type
database. When accessing a Paradox environment it doesn't seem to
trouble me.

Is this a bug? Is there a workaround? What is the source of the problem?

Any help appreciated,

This makes me wonder if the problem may be a bookmark operation ebeded in a
component - A Bookmark operation that works fine a Paradox table however not
in a SQL-Type database. Just a wild guess.
