Displaying the data type
In SNGL display format, use the TYPE primary command to show or
hide the data type (and, for non-numeric columns, the length of the
column) for each displayed column:
- If the data type details are not currently displayed, FM/Db2 displays
an additional column (between the name and data columns) showing the
data type details for each column.
If you enter the TYPE primary command in TABL display format, the display is unaltered. However, if you change to SNGL display format, the display status of the additional column is reversed.
- If the data type details are already displayed, the TYPE primary command removes them from display.
Note: You can also display the data type details by selecting the Show
data type option (for TABL, SNGL, or both display formats).
