I continue to be bewildered by programmers'
fixation on datatypes. This has been a constant
theme for 6 years now. And in all that time, I
have never been able to figure out why so many
people think they need to know the "type" of a
"column".
because in most of the languages we use (when dealing
with other database packages) it throws an error when you
don't match the variable's type to the database column
type. VB.NET and MS SQL leap to mind...
