It will. As I've said I wont be storing any symbols.

Greetings.

I have a question regarding performance of certain datatypes:

I have a field where I will store my clients phone numbers. I know that  this
field will never exceed 15 characters, and I will store only numbers  here (no
dashes, dots, etc...), so I was wondering:

Wich type is faster: NUMERIC(15,0) or VARCHAR(15)? Are there any storage
differences between them?

TIA,
