>Almost. In VFP the Numeric type is stored as a string in a table. Because of that, 12 includes a position for a '-' (minus) for negative numbers and a position for '.'(dot). As result Numeric(12,2) in VFP leaves only 10 digits for negative numbers and 11 for positive.

>>When defining a Numeric type, are the parameters carry the same meaning as in VFP? That is, if you define Numeric(12,2) would be the same as in VFP (up to 12 digits and 2 decimals)?
