*Integer2 Data Type

The * Integer2 data type is similar to * Binary , with these exceptions:

  • The integer format allows the full range of binary values.
  • The number of decimal positions for an integer field is always zero.

  • Its length is defined in bytes, rather than digits.

  • Integer2 automatically specifies the length as a 2-byte integer with the following field length range
-32768 to 32767

The equivalent .NET data type is System.Int16 .

You can also use the other data types to automatically set the length to a 4 or 8-byte integer.

  • Integer4 - sets the length to a 4-byte integer.

  • Integer8 - sets the length to an 8-byte integer.
