Does anyone know where I can find a list of supported data types in Oracle 9i?

I thought that bit and varbinary types were supported but I get an error when I try to create a table using those data types.

Thanks for any assistance.
 
You find supported data types in the Oracle 9i Dokumentation. BIT may be the PL/SQL-type BOOLEAN and VARBINARY sounds more like some type used in OCI - which are both no valid types for field in a table.
You could store BIT as NUMBER(1). I never worked with VARBINARY - maybe BLOB or NUMBER?
