Determining precision and scale  Automatic conversion of fixed-length NULL columns

Chapter 1: System and User-Defined Datatypes

Datatype conversions

Many conversions from one datatype to another are handled automatically by Adaptive Server. These are called implicit conversions. Other conversions must be performed explicitly with the convert, hextoint, inttohex, hextobigint, and biginttohex functions. See “Datatype conversion functions” for details about datatype conversions supported by Adaptive Server.
