Returns a value that indicates the maximum size, in bytes, of the underlying data of an rdoColumn object that contains text or the fixed size of an rdoColumn object that contains text or numeric values.
Syntax
object.Size
The object placeholder is an object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
Return Values
The Size property return value is a Long value. The value depends on the Type property setting of the rdoColumn object, as discussed in Remarks.
Remarks
For columns that return character values, the Size property indicates the maximum number of characters that the data source column can hold. For numeric columns, the Size property indicates how many bytes of data source storage are required for the column data. This value depends on the data source implementation.
For data source columns that require the use of GetChunk and AppendChunk methods, the Size property is always 0 — you can use the ColumnSize method to return correct size information. The maximum size of a chunk-type column is limited only by your system resources or the maximum size of the database.
