Use long,int,double for NUMBER??

I have a odesc() call in my program to find information about a column.
However, if I am returned with a internal type of NUMBER, what do I
allocate? An int, long, or double.  What is everyone else doing when
converting a internal NUMBER datatype to an external type?



Thanks in advance,


Mark Walter
