Adaptive Server Enterprise, SQL Anywhere, and Sybase IQ have different default precision and scale:
In Adaptive Server Enterprise, the default is precision 18 scale 0.
In SQL Anywhere, the default is precision 30 scale 6.
In Sybase IQ, the default is precision 126 scale 38. Because these defaults are too large for TDS and for some client tools, always specify a precision and scale for Sybase IQ exact numeric types.
