The identifier for the bit ODBC SQL data type is:
SQL_BIT
The following table shows the ODBC C data types to which bit SQL data may be converted. For an explanation of the columns and terms in the table, see “Converting Data from SQL to C Data Types.”

[a]The value of BufferLength is ignored for this conversion. The driver assumes that the size of *TargetValuePtr is the size of the C data type.
[b]This is the size of the corresponding C data type.
When bit SQL data is converted to character C data, the possible values are “0” and “1”.
