A Comparison of SQL Server and InterBase Datatypes and Some Other Issues By Claudio Valderrama C. In SQL Server, Transact-SQL has the following base data types. I will place on the right side of the equals sign the InterBase equivalent. +binary(n)=char(n) character set octets It has been reported that the InterBase client library has a bug regarding octects, but I have yet to see a cdefinitive answer. +bit= This is an heritage from Sybase. The internal implementation uses a byte or a word. This is a boolean field. People have used char and smallint in InterBase for this. When I worked with the Sybase engine, even the Sybase client-side tools on Sun platforms (DB-Workbench) had problems dealing with this data type, so I didn't use it.

DBMS, March 1996 A Look at SQL Trees Joe travels from New York to Boise, stopping only to consider trees (in SQL, that is). In December, I attended both DB/Expo in New York and Database and Client/Server World in Chicago. This is no small feat, because these two major conferences are paired against each other in the same week and have been for the past couple of years. This really needs to stop. I did not see much of either conference and what I did see is blurred tog ...
