Remarks
If you pass in a value that has a different data type than the object, the data type of the object will be changed to match the data type of the value.
A COMVariant object has a decimal type if its data type is set to COMVariantType::VT_DECIMAL.
The decimal data type is a COM data type that provides size and scale for a number. There is no parallel to the decimal data type in X++.

The following example creates a new COMVariant object of type VT_DECIMAL and sets the value to 123.456.
{
COMVariant var = new COMVariant(
COMVariantInOut::IN_OUT,
COMVariantType::VT_DECIMAL);
// Set value of the object
var.decimal(123.456);
}
