Datatypes

Component Integration Services supports Unicode, datatype conversions, and text and image datatypes.

• Unicode support
  SAP ASE contains formal support for the Unicode character set.
• Datatype Conversions
  Datatype conversion can take place whenever the server receives data from a remote source, be it SAP ASE, or an Open Server-based application.
• text and image Datatypes
  The text datatype is used to store printable character data, the column size of which depends on the logical page size of the SAP ASE.
