Subject: RE: Integer type in DDS PF?
I defined my column in the DDS as " 4B 0" and thought all was well. Today,
I happened to be looking in iACS, and it shows the data type as SMALLINT
instead of INTEGER. Does the DDS need 8B instead?
Thanks

I had a vague recollection of defining integers 4 long binary in RPG long
ago, but wasn't positive. Thank you

An sql integer is 9B 0 which uses 4 bytes of storage.
