Greetings,

With reference to the data types, a data row is organized as fixed length column data, uncompressed column data, and varchar column data.

1. Is there a particular order that the fixed length column data are stored in, i.e., integers, decimal, char, etc.?

2. Should a database designer group like data types in the table definition together, e.g., all integers first and varchars last?

Thank you in advance.
