Default FIELD types


Quick question, in syscolumns there is a column "coltype" - is there a lookup table anywhere that will link the different types to their corresponding values ?

I don't think so, but I just want to make sure.


Thanks
Dirk

If you have ESQL/C (SDK) or 4GL look in the sqltypes.h header file in
either:

$INFORMIXDIR/incl/esql -or- $INFORMIXDIR/incl/tools

If you have neither, depending on version, you may also find the file in:

$INFORMIXDIR/incl/public
