this is probably a dumb question to most, but I would like to know which SQL data type to use for a drivers license number. In my state the drivers license number contains a letter . I know that there are three different categories of data types, text, number, and Date/Time types. I also know of the types that fall under those categories, but am unsure to as which one to use for string which contains both numbers and letters.
In advance, thanks for any help that I receive.
use “varchar” datatype . so you can use both numbers and alpahabets
