Modifying your application<br />

Note the following considerations and plan, as needed:<br />

Modifying your application<br />

• The <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> <strong>for</strong> MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong> supports the same functionality as the <strong>Data</strong><strong>Server</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />

ODBC. There<strong>for</strong>e, you do not have to change your application. However, if you used any<br />

reference to DBTYPE as ODBC, you will have to change these to MS <strong>SQL</strong> <strong>Server</strong>.<br />

• Determine your application needs and goals be<strong>for</strong>e changing INTEGER data types to INT64<br />

data types in applications. Not all INTEGER data types will necessarily require the<br />

additional bit size, nor will wholesale changes in data types necessarily work efficiently<br />

with other interfaces to ABL. To review additional considerations about determining when<br />

to use INT64 versus INTEGER, see Release 10 ABL <strong>Data</strong> Types Web paper available at the<br />
