Datatype Conversions

When you use the create table or create existing table commands, you must specify all datatypes, using recognized Adaptive Server datatypes. If the remote server tables reside on a class of server that is heterogeneous, the datatypes of the remote table are converted into the specified Adaptive Server types automatically when the data is retrieved. If the conversion cannot be made, the create table or create existing table commands do not allow the table to be created or defined.
