Hi,
1. internal data organization and data structure:
http://www.peg.com/techpapers/monogr...ma/schema.html
2. data types:
decimal, character, integer, date, logical, recid.
3. concurrency control:
3 modes of retrieving records: NO-LOCK - equivalent of READ_UNCOMMITTED transaction isolation level, SHARE-LOCK - equivalent of REPEATABLE_READ; EXCLUSIVE-LOCK - equivalent of SELECT ... FOR UPDATE.
4. DDL
There is no DDL. You can modify logical db structure by loading *.df file with schema changes definitions.
5. Very efficient, far more better than SQL-92 standard. I think that you need documentation for Progress as ypou mentioned very broad range of subjects concerning Progress technology.
