A parameter can be indicated either directly as a number or as a variable
of the type Number. If the parameter does not correspond to the expec-
ted type, it will automatically be converted to this. If this is not possible,
the result of this operation is given as invalid.

Note

Only the integral part is used for all parameters.

A variable of the type Date/Time cannot be transferred as a parameter
here.

Both for the automatic and explicit conversion of a Time to the type
Number, the number of days are counted since December 30, 1899
at 01 hours.

is rounded off to 5 decimal places, but a relational operation for exam-
ple is carried out with the exact value!
