If you decide to use square brackets around type names, why don't you include the parenthesized length part of the types in the square brackets? In other words, I would expect ```sql [RegClt] VARCHAR(4), [Tra] [UNSIGNED WORD(1)], [PiedHtMon0] [DOUBLE PRECISION], ``` instead of ```sql [RegClt] VARCHAR(4), [Tra] [UNSIGNED WORD](1), [PiedHtMon0] [DOUBLE PRECISION], ``` I'll leave the testing to you... ~~~ -- Regards, Kees NUyt ~~~
