-===== Omnidex Datatypes ===== 
- 
-Omnidex supports a wide variety of datatypes, including standard ANSI datatypes, Omnidex-specific datatypes and RDBMS-specific datatypes.  ​ 
- 
-==== Standard Datatypes ==== 
- 
-Omnidex supports the following standard datatypes: 
- 
-^ Datatype ​               ^ Description ​                                                 ^ 
-| CHARACTER(//​n//​) ​       | Space-filled character string of //n// characters ​           | 
-| CHAR(//​n//​) ​            | Synonym for CHARACTER(//​n//​) ​                                | 
-| C STRING(//​n//​) ​        | Null-terminated character string of //n// characters ​        | 
-| VARCHAR(//​n//​)* ​        | String of max //n// characters, with length variable ​        | 
-| CLOB(//​n//​)* ​           | Character large object of max //n// characters, with length variable | 
-| [SIGNED] TINYINT ​       | 1-byte, signed integer ( -128 to 127 )                       | 
-| UNSIGNED TINYINT ​       | 1-byte, unsigned integer ( 0 to 255 )                        | 
-| [SIGNED] SMALLINT ​      | 2-byte, signed integer ( -32768 to 32767 )                   | 
-| UNSIGNED SMALLINT ​      | 2-byte, unsigned integer ( 0 to 65535 )                      | 
-| [SIGNED] INTEGER ​       | 4-byte, signed integer ( 2147483648 to 2147483647 )          | 
-| UNSIGNED INTEGER ​       | 4-byte, unsigned integer ( 0 to 4294967295 )                 | 
-| [SIGNED] BIGINT ​        | 8-byte, signed integer ( %%-2^63 to 2^63-1%% )               | 
-| UNSIGNED BIGINT ​        | 8-byte, unsigned integer ( %%0 to 2^64-1%% )                 | 
-| FLOAT                   | IEEE four-byte, single-precision floating point              | 
-| DOUBLE ​                 | IEEE eight-byte, double-precision floating point             | 
-| ANSI DATE               | 10-byte ANSI date                                            | 
-| ANSI TIME               | 11-byte ANSI time                                            | 
-| ANSI DATETIME ​          | 24-byte ANSI datetime ​                                       | 
-| ASCII DATE              | 8-byte ASCII date ( YYYYMMDD )                               | 
-| ASCII DATE(6) ​          | 6-byte ASCII date ( YYMMDD )                                 | 
-| C DATETIME ​             | 8-byte integer based on the C time() routine ​                | 
-| ODBC DATE               | 6-byte ODBC proprietary date                                 | 
-| ODBC TIME               | 6-byte ODBC proprietary time                                 | 
-| ODBC DATETIME ​          | 6-byte ODBC proprietary datetime ​                            | 
-| ORACLE DATE             | 7-byte Oracle proprietary date                               | 
-| ORACLE TIME             | 7-byte Oracle proprietary time                               | 
-| ORACLE DATETIME ​        | 7-byte Oracle proprietary datetime ​                          | 
-| OMNIDEX DATE(//​n//​) ​    | Omnidex proprietary date supporting //n// digits of YYYYMMDD | 
-| OMNIDEX TIME(//​n//​) ​    | Omnidex proprietary time supporting //n// digits of HHMMSSNN | 
-| OMNIDEX DATETIME(//​n//​) | Omnidex proprietary datetime supporting //n// digits of YYYYMMDDHHMMSSNN | 
-| * Omnidex recommends use of the CHARACTER and C STRING datatypes rather than VARCHAR and CLOB due to the requirement of a length variable. || 
- 
-==== National Character Datatypes ==== 
- 
-Omnidex also provides partial support for National Character Datatypes (sometimes called 
-Unicode datatypes or wide characters). ​ The Omnidex SQL Engine will process these  
-datatypes, but the Omnidex Indexing Engine will only index the lower 8 bits of these  
-datatypes. 
- 
-^ Datatype ​                 ^ Description ​                                               ^ 
-| NATIONAL CHARACTER(//​n//​) | Space-filled character string of //n// characters ​         | 
-| NATIONAL CHAR(//​n//​) ​     | Synonym for CHARACTER(//​n//​) ​                              | 
-| NATIONAL C STRING(//​n//​) ​ | Null-terminated character string of //n// characters ​      | 
-| NATIONAL VARCHAR(//​n//​)* ​ | String of max //n// characters, with length variable ​      | 
-| NATIONAL CLOB(//​n//​)* ​    | Character large object of max //n// characters, with length variable | 
-| * Omnidex recommends use of the NATIONAL CHARACTER and NATIONAL C STRING datatypes rather than NATIONAL VARCHAR and NATIONAL CLOB due to the requirement of a length variable. ​ ||
