[RBASE-L] - Friday question

[Jan Johansen]

G'Day,

I need to add several columns to a table that will basically hold
True/False information. 

In the past I have always handled this with a TEXT column
defaulted to N and being able to change to Y. 
But I'm curious now if this kind of information
is better handled with an INTEGER defaulted to 0
and using 1 as true.
Opinions?
