How to get proper column types in Sybase

问题

I have to know the data type of some columns in my table in Sybase ASE. Here is my query

select name from systypes
where type in (39,
47,
39,
39,
106
)

this returns

char       
varchar    
sysname    
nchar      
nvarchar       
decimaln       
longsysname    

I was hoping it would return

varchar
char
varchar
varchar
decimaln

why are the results not as expected ? How can i get the proper column types ? I intend to use this information later to create a dynamic query that creates another table.

You need to join systypes to syscolumns on both the type and usertype columns.
