    Thanks. But application people want to know more about the width rather than the storage size. Like in Oracle we say number(38), it can hold 38 digits.

    Look at Gail's reply and count the number of digits in the answers that she gave you. Do not count the first digit. I do not know if Oracle counts the signs place or not.
