Ascii Size

Attribute

AsciiSize (ASZ)

Purpose

Valid Values

x
where:
x
is an integer greater than 0 (zero).

Default

4000

Notes

*In most scenarios, an error is returned if the size of an ASCII value specified in a statement exceeds the precision determined by this option. However, when executing a Select statement, the driver will return data containing values that are larger than the specified precision.
