-===== 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: 
-

-|OMNIDEX DATETIME(//​n//​)|DATE ​   |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.
