I need to add a column for "release #" in one of my tables. A numeric(3) would be plenty, but I wonder if I shouldn't just make it an integer and be done with it. I don't expect the field to be indexed, so I guess this is just silliness over 1 byte, eh?
Can anyone name a valid reason why you'd make it INTEGER type instead of NUMERIC(3)? tia! --Michael -- Michael J.
