All,
For a decimal value of 1 billion being retrieved from SQL Server where the associated datatype is Numeric (28,10), I am running into Conversion overflow exception. From MSDN:
The .NET Framework decimal data type allows a maximum of 28 significant digits
I need to clarify if the digits here refer to the binary form or decimal form itself?
The limitation is imposed by the decimal representation and the 28 significant digits refer to 28 decimal digits.
