Question

Fields that contain numbers that are not used in calculations should be set to ________.

Answer 1

Fields that contain numbers that are not used in calculations should be set to "Text".

Answer 2

The field should be set to short text.

• It is a generic simple data type.
• The length of a field of this data type is limited to 255 characters, which is determined by field size.
• It is a good idea to think about how long the data that will be entered in that field will be and adjust the field size accordingly.
• Therefore, the short text should be used in fields that contain numbers that aren't used in calculations.
