Help!

I am currently designing a new database. All my tables are designed in 4th normal form with primary key indexes on each. I am trying to decide what datatype to use for my indexes. Which datatype should I use to provide the fastest table scanning. I am leaning towards NUMBER, but I really am not sure.

Kudos to whoever can answer this one.
