Determining your application needs
Determine your application needs and goals before changing INTEGER data
types to INT64 data types in applications. Not
all INTEGER data types will necessarily require
the additional bit size, nor will wholesale changes in data types
necessarily work efficiently with other interfaces to ABL. For more
information about determining when to use INT64 versus INTEGER,
refer to the Release 10 ABL Data Types Web paper available
at the Web paper category of the PSDN Web site located at http://communities.progress.com/pcom/community/psdn.
