char(length): Sybase DBMS fixed length character string. Used for all LeasePak string columns, except the info_s columns in the Notebook tables.
length denotes the maximum number of characters the string can contain.
double precision: Sybase DBMS floating-point number. Used to store percentages, rates, and dollar amounts.
integer: Sybase DBMS integer number. Used to store whole numbers.
timestamp: Sybase DBMS binary timestamp. Whenever a table includes a timestamp column, Sybase automatically updates the binary time information in the timestamp column each time a user inserts or updates a record. LeasePak uses the timestamp information to prevent corruption when multiple users attempt to update the same record simultaneously.
