SMALLINT

The SMALLINT data type is used for storing small whole numbers.

Syntax

SMALLINT

The storage of SMALLINT variables is based on 2 bytes of signed data ( = 16 bits ).

The value range is from -32,767 to +32,767.

When assigning a whole number that exceeds the SMALLINT range, the overflow error -1214 will be raised.

SMALLINT variables are initialized to zero in functions, modules and globals.
