Hi, I am working with an Oracle 10 g Database and when I try to load a field with an infinite value in it the entire application freezes.

I have isolated the problem to any attempt to access the infinite value, either through OracleConnection.Fill, or OracleDataReader.GetOracleNumber, will result in the entire application hanging. It appears that when you retrieve the OracleNumber it is fune, but any attempts to quantify this number into a decimal value results in a crash.

Has anyone encountered this problem, and if so, what steps did you take to fix this problem or work around it?

I use to have an open mind, but my brains kept falling out
