The data type functions define and retrieve the data types of the tables involved in the FairCom DB SQL database. Most of the functions involve the use of one cursor handle. ctsqlSetBlob() involves a command handle, and there are no handles involved with some other functions in this category.
Note: Be sure to choose a function of the correct data type for your specific field type. Using a different data type (for example using only 1 byte of a ctsqlGetSmallInt for a bit field) could produce unexpected results.
