Retrieving data types from database

Hi, I have the following problem:

I want to retrieve SQL data type of every column from database (means I want
to retrieve bigint, varchar(20) etc. instead of System.Int32, System.String
etc). I've written the following code:

string[] datatype = new string [100];
int i=0;

foreach (DataColumn column in myDataTable.Columns)
{
i++;
datatype = column.DataType.ToString();
}

but this code retrieves C# data types, i.e System.Int32, System.String and
so on.

Anyone can help me with some tips?
 
As long as the data is accurate and you can update the data correctly. What
is the issue?
