Oracle pads raw(n) datatypes with blanks when users insert values less than n. SQL Server pads binary(n) datatypes with 0s when users insert values less than n.
An error may occur if an Adaptive Server Enterprise user expects 0-padded data yet accesses blank-padded data. Likewise, there may be problems if native Oracle applications expect to see blank-padded data, yet access 0-padded data.
