Memory size for Decimal and Numeric types
According to the DataStage PX documentation, the size for Double is 8 bytes, Float is 4 bytes. What is the storage szie for Decimal and Numeric types? And what is the range for these types?

That is also in the documentation (for version 7.5 Parallel Job Developers Guide page 2-32), and depends on the precision settings. Range depends on precision also; a decimal with precision N can contain no more than N digits.
