*hmmm* "vary between..." thats a different way to the way in my past and required a little different view at the db from me. maybe i can solve my problem, if i do furthermore save same type in same column - as always having done. but i cannot request the fieldtype after open the table. First i have to read the first row, all fields and request every type of every field. if i don't (that followed) vary the stored type, maybe my problem is be solved (...hope so... is it solved?)
