Remarks

The NumericScale property describes the numeric scale, or the maximum number of digits to the right of the decimal point, of the OLE DB data type for the measure. If the measure does not have a numeric data type, this property returns a value of 0. Otherwise, the value of this property represents the numeric scale for the specified data type as supported by the underlying data source.

For more information about numeric scale in OLE DB, see Chapter 13, "Data Types in OLE DB" in the OLE DB documentation.

The value of this property is identical to the value of the NUMERIC_SCALE column of the MEASURES schema rowset for the specified measure.
