<str> does not support G_FLOAT Explanation: /G_FLOAT was specified for a language such as COBOL which does not support the G_FLOAT data type. User Action: Unless you are taking the G_FLOAT number and passing it to a language which understands G floating numbers, you probably want to reprecompile without the /G_FLOAT qualifier. If you use it from this language, the compiled code will think it is a different number than the database system did.
