Category: ASE: Functions: Datatype Conversion Functions

implicit conversions, Automatic Conversion of Datatypes

See also: Datatype Conversion Functions.

Adaptive Server® can automatically perform a number of datatype conversions. These are called implicit conversions. For example these datatypes can be compared: char and datetime, and smallint with int as well as char-expressions of different length can be compared with each other. In these cases ASE will automatically convert from one datatype into another.
