I just issued the command CREATE TABLE Test (MyCol VARCHAR(19) using the ConComp database shipped with R:Base for Windows, with the result that the table was created correctly in the database. My understanding is that R:Base _does_ support all the standard SQL datatypes, mapping them transparently to internal types as necessary. -- Larry _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
