Hi Team,
I have a quick question on data types and its sizes. I would like to know the sizes of each data type (few of them may need calculations, but would like to have them documented for my calculation).
Let me give a quick background on why i need this data - I have a requirement from management where i need to calculate the storage space of one complete order. They will need this data to compute the growth in storage space vs their business.
INTEGER - 32 bits
INT64 - 64 bits
LOGICAL - 1 bit (may be am wrong, but as it needs to store either yes or no - my assumption is 1 bit)
CHARACTER - ? (not sure what is the static number that progress allocates. Is it 32K?)
DATE - ?
DATETIME - ?
LONGCHAR - ? (does progress allocated memory statically?)
DECIMAL - ?
Please let me know your questions if any. Thanks!
