Can a V-String hold an int value? I have a column with Type set to V-String and I am trying to input Label1 in that field. Should it work?

Hi @skassamali 

 

V_String can accept any ASCII character. If your INT values are ASCII characters, yes, it should work. But they will be interpreted as strings - that means they cannot be used to make calculations.

 

Cheers,
