the opposite being


NUMBER (FieldSize = LONG INTEGER)

What is integer in visual basic?

In the computer programming language Visual Basic, the data type integer is a whole number which can be used in calclations. It can be positive, negative, or zero. The default type of integer is 32-bit, but with "short" and "long" you can have 16- or 64- bit answers. The short data type works well with small numbers and saves RAM space. If overflow is a problem, long works better because of its larger capacity. To take the integer portion of a decimal, single, or double, use the int() function. int(3.925604) returns 3 as a decimal To convert a data type to integer, use cint() cint(int(3.925604)) returns 3 as an integer

What are access data types?

The data type of a database field determines the possible values that that field can hold. When you create a field in MS Access and assign it the Date/Time data type, than that field can only hold date and time values like 04-11-2008 17:51. When you assign the Number data type and set the field length to "Long integer" that field can only hold whole numbers. Text, Number and Date are the most common data types in Access. A more exotic data type is the Attachment data type, which can hold files or the Calculated data type which can hold a formula that calculates a result based on values from other fields.
