We are in process of producing a system that requires "signatures" of individuals.
We are going to use the signature pads that are like those in drug stores and other retail establishments. My question is ..."Can the "signature" be stored in a DB2 database to be retrieved and sent later to a user that requires the signature????
Are any of you now doing this???
thanks.

Not sure what the signature pads give as output...

If they produce an image file, then use a LOB type.

If they produce binary data, then maybe CHAR() FOR BIT DATA.

Regards
