Specifies the data type of a field, property, for use in an OdbcParameter.
Assembly: System.Data (in System.Data.dll)
| Member name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| BigInt | Exact numeric value with precision 19 (if signed) or 20 (if unsigned) and scale 0 (signed: –2[63] <= n <= 2[63] – 1, unsigned:0 <= n <= 2[64] – 1) (SQL_BIGINT). This maps to Int64. | |
| Binary | A stream of binary data (SQL_BINARY). This maps to an Array of type Byte. | |
| Bit | Single bit binary data (SQL_BIT). This maps to Boolean. | |
| Char | A fixed-length character string (SQL_CHAR). This maps to String. | |
| DateTime | Date data in the format yyyymmddhhmmss (SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP). This maps to DateTime. | |
| Decimal | Signed, exact, numeric value with a precision of at least p and scale s, where 1 <= p <= 15 and s <= p. The maximum precision is driver-specific (SQL_DECIMAL). This maps to Decimal. | |
| Numeric | Signed, exact, numeric value with a precision p and scale s, where 1 <= p <= 15, and s <= p (SQL_NUMERIC). This maps to Decimal. | |
| Double | Signed, approximate, numeric value with a binary precision 53 (zero or absolute value 10[–308] to 10[308]) (SQL_DOUBLE). This maps to Double. | |
| Image | Variable length binary data. Maximum length is data source–dependent (SQL_LONGVARBINARY). This maps to an Array of type Byte. | |
| Int | Exact numeric value with precision 10 and scale 0 (signed: –2[31] <= n <= 2[31] – 1, unsigned:0 <= n <= 2[32] – 1) (SQL_INTEGER). This maps to Int32. | |
| NChar | Unicode character string of fixed string length (SQL_WCHAR). This maps to String. | |
| NText | Unicode variable-length character data. Maximum length is data source–dependent. (SQL_WLONGVARCHAR). This maps to String. | |
| NVarChar | A variable-length stream of Unicode characters (SQL_WVARCHAR). This maps to String. | |
| Real | Signed, approximate, numeric value with a binary precision 24 (zero or absolute value 10[–38] to 10[38]).(SQL_REAL). This maps to Single. | |
| UniqueIdentifier | A fixed-length GUID (SQL_GUID). This maps to Guid. | |
| SmallDateTime | Data and time data in the format yyyymmddhhmmss (SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP). This maps to DateTime. | |
| SmallInt | Exact numeric value with precision 5 and scale 0 (signed: –32,768 <= n <= 32,767, unsigned: 0 <= n <= 65,535) (SQL_SMALLINT). This maps to Int16. | |
| Text | Variable length character data. Maximum length is data source–dependent (SQL_LONGVARCHAR). This maps to String. | |
| Timestamp | A stream of binary data (SQL_BINARY). This maps to an Array of type Byte. | |
| TinyInt | Exact numeric value with precision 3 and scale 0 (signed: –128 <= n <= 127, unsigned:0 <= n <= 255)(SQL_TINYINT). This maps to Byte. | |
| VarBinary | Variable length binary. The maximum is set by the user (SQL_VARBINARY). This maps to an Array of type Byte. | |
| VarChar | A variable-length stream character string (SQL_CHAR). This maps to String. | |
| Date | Date data in the format yyyymmdd (SQL_TYPE_DATE). This maps to DateTime. | |
| Time | Date data in the format hhmmss (SQL_TYPE_TIMES). This maps to DateTime. |
