We are adding a properties definition to polygons that we then take into ArcGIS via the ADEDEFDATA and ADEATTACHDATA commands. We want the data type to be an Integer when it comes into ArcGIS. When we set the type to Integer in CAD it comes into ArcGIS as Integer,Integer. It adds a comma and 0 to the properties defined integer in CAD. If we set the CAD type to character it comes into ArcGIS correctly but as a text, which we really need it to be a number. I believe this may have to do with how our server is converting the data as shown here https://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.3/manage-data/databases/dbms-data-types-supported.htm under Microsoft SQL Server. If this is the issue it looks like a Long Integer would not return a ,0 but the Short Integer does, however CAD does not have the option of Short or Long but only "Integer". So I am not sure if there is a way to transfer the integer as long or in a more truer form, but any guidance on this would be appreciated.
Thank you
