# TField.AsInteger

Access the field's contents as a 32-bit signed integer (longint) value.

## Declaration

Source position: db.pas line 411

`public property TField.AsInteger : LongInt read GetAsInteger write SetAsInteger;`

## Description

AsInteger can be used to read or write the contents of the field as a 32-bit signed integer value (of type Integer). If the native type of the field is not an integer value, then an attempt will be made to convert the field value from the native format to a integer value when reading the field's content. Likewise, when writing the property, the value will be converted to the native type of the field (if the value allows it). Therefor, when reading or writing a field value for a field whose native data type is not a 32-bit signed integer-compatible value (string values for instance), an exception may be raised.
