Hi All,
How can I get the datatype of a column using a query?
Thanks,
SanjeevUse view information_schema.columns.
Example:
use northwind
go
select
data_type
from
information_schema.columns
where
table_schema = 'dbo'
and table_name = 'orders'
and column_name = 'orderid';

I was going to use a join on sysobjects, syscolumns and systypes to get
it but this looks better!
