DataType Casts

The DataType Casts section lists the following system variables:

Data Type	Description
DT_STR	A null-terminated ANSI/MBCS character string with a maximum length of 8000 characters. (If a column value contains additional null terminators, the string will be truncated at the occurrence of the first null.)
DT_WSTR	A null-terminated Unicode character string with a maximum length of 4000 characters. (If a column value contains additional null terminators, the string will be truncated at the occurrence of the first null.)
DT_TEXT	An ANSI/MBCS character string with a maximum length of 231-1 (2,147,483,647) characters.
DT_NTEXT	A Unicode character string with a maximum length of 230 - 1 (1,073,741,823) characters.
DT_I1	A one-byte, signed integer.
DT_I2	A two-byte, signed integer.
DT_I4	A four-byte, signed integer.
DT_I8	An eight-byte, signed integer.
DT_UI1	A one-byte, unsigned integer.
DT_UI2	A two-byte, unsigned integer.
DT_UI4	A four-byte, unsigned integer.
DT_UI8	An eight-byte, unsigned integer.
DT_R4	A single-precision floating-point value.
DT_R8	A double-precision floating-point value.
DT_CY	A currency value. This data type is an eight-byte signed integer with a scale of 4 and a maximum precision of 19 digits.
DT_DECIMAL	An exact numeric value with a fixed precision and a fixed scale. This data type is a 12-byte unsigned integer with a separate sign, a scale of 0 to 28, and a maximum precision of 29.
DT_NUMERIC	An exact numeric value with a fixed precision and scale. This data type is a 16-byte unsigned integer with a separate sign, a scale of 0 - 38, and a maximum precision of 38.
DT_BOOL	A Boolean value.
DT_DATE	A date structure that consists of year, month, day, hour, minute, seconds, and fractional seconds. The fractional seconds have a fixed scale of 7 digits. The DT_DATE data type is implemented using an 8-byte floating-point number. Days are represented by whole number increments, starting with 30 December 1899, and midnight as time zero. Hour values are expressed as the absolute value of the fractional part of the number. However, a floating point value cannot represent all real values; therefore, there are limits on the range of dates that can be presented in DT_DATE. On the other hand, DT_DBTIMESTAMP is represented by a structure that internally has individual fields for year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds. This data type has larger limits on ranges of the dates it can present.
DT_DBDATE	A date structure that consists of year, month, and day.
DT_DBTIME	A time structure that consists of hour, minute, and second.
DT_DBTIME2	A time structure that consists of hour, minute, second, and fractional seconds. The fractional seconds have a maximum scale of 7 digits.
DT_DBTIMESTAMP	A timestamp structure that consists of year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and fractional seconds. The fractional seconds have a fixed scale of 3 digits.
DT_DBTIMESTAMP2	A timestamp structure that consists of year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and fractional seconds. The fractional seconds have a maximum scale of 7 digits.
DT_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET	A timestamp structure that consists of year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and fractional seconds. The fractional seconds have a maximum scale of 7 digits. Unlike the DT_DBTIMESTAMP and DT_DBTIMESTAMP2 data types, the DT_DBTIMESTAMPOFFSET data type has a time zone offset. This offset specifies the number of hours and minutes that the time is offset from the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The time zone offset is used by the system to obtain the local time. The time zone offset must include a sign, plus or minus, to indicate whether the offset is added or subtracted from the UTC. The valid number of hours offset is between -14 and +14. The sign for the minute offset depends on the sign for the hour offset: If the sign of the hour offset is negative, the minute offset must be negative or zero. If the sign for the hour offset is positive, the minute offset must be positive or zero. If the sign for the hour offset is zero, the minute offset can be any value from negative 0.59 to positive 0.59.
DT_FILETIME	A 64-bit value that represents the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 1601. The fractional seconds have a maximum scale of 3 digits.
