If the NUMBER datatype is accompanied by scale and precision information, Omnidex can guess at an appropriate matching binary datatype, such as BIGINT, INTEGER, SMALLINT, TINYINT, FLOAT or DOUBLE. If scale and precision are not specified, Omnidex will necessarily use a DOUBLE datatype. For the best performance and ease of development, these datatypes should be changed to the smallest binary datatype that will accommodate the values in the column. | * Most Oracle binary data is stored in NUMBER datatypes.

| + | === Manually Creating an Omnidex Environment File === | ||
| + | |||
| + | An Omnidex Environment File can also be created by manually issuing CREATE ENVIRONMENT, CREATE DATABASE, CREATE TABLE and CREATE INDEX statements in OdxSQL or using ODBC or JDBC. If these statements are written to a text batch file, then that file can be submitted to OdxSQL using the USE command. | ||
