How to set the size of a date/time column?

[jrow]

It appears that the default length of a date column is 10 characters. How do I change it to a different length?

Thanks

I should be more specific. The default length is 10 in a command window.

Look up the column formatting commands in a SQL+ manual.

Too simple of a solution!

The "SET DATEWIDTH " command is the easiest solution.
