Scale is a negative value, not positive (so a DECIMAL(10,5) has scale -5

This is an old problem. Many drivers do local cache-ing, others do their

We are now using the feature in Firebird that allows numerical sorting of
varchar fields ( see below )
however now the length of these fields in RDB$FIELDS.RDB$FIELD_LENGTH is now 4
times the real size of the field. size 80 when domain length is really only 20.
This deceives our application int
found the answer.
there is also a character_length field in the rdb$fields table.
Found solution in archives of this group.
Kind Regards,
