Description

Converts a string to the corresponding binary-coded decimal (BCD) value.

Use StrToBcd to convert a string into a binary-coded decimal value. The decimals and precision are inferred from the digits present in the string.

StrToBcd converts the string specified by aValue and returns the resulting BCD value. If aValue does not represent a value that can be expressed as a TBcd, StrToBcd raises an exception.

Tip: To convert a string to a Bcd value without raising an exception for invalid strings, use the Data.FmtBcd.TryStrToBcd function instead.
