Hi all,
why is the DefinedSize of the Field object of type adInteger returning the
value 4 and the same property on a adVarWChar type field (Text in MS Access)
is returning the max length of the string that it may contain (for example
52)?
I'm using ADO 2.8
Thank You,
Lorenzo

Because it takes four bytes (32 bits) to hold the largest available integer
value (2,147,xxx,xxx - I haven't memorized this one - you can look it up if
you're so inclined).
Don't forget, unicode (adVarWChar) takes twice the characters to store the
same data as non-unicode types (adVarChar).

I did imagine something like that but why is the return type of the
DefinedSize of a different type for the two types of field (text and
integer)? Does that make sense?
Thank You for your help,

Why wouldn't it be? I don't understand the question. The defined size of an
integer field has to be 4. The defined size of a Text field is whatever the
size is defined to be in the database.

I am working with the TYPE property. I want to change that from 2 (byte) to

Hello All,
I have an MC++ class named "Person" which encapsulates access to a
database entity and it contains a number of field properties eg. Code,
Name, Address, Suburb etc.
Each of the field properties is of type "Field", so we have eg.

What is the definition of a field in VB.net (other than database functions)?
How does one distinguish between a "field" and a "property"?
Or are fields and properties related to each other in some way?
Thanks in advance.

This is my first attempt at new classes and dynamic python, so I am

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp
