Reading non-CHAR data using the SQLDA structure

Hi, I am using Dynamic sql in ESQL/C using the sqlda structure. While fetching records using the sqlda structure, I am able to read all data from the "CHAR" type columns, but I am not able to read the non-CHAR data (INTEGER, DATETIME, etc.). Is there a way to read non-CHAR columns using SQLDA. (I know that you can do this if you are using the "SYSTEM DESCRIPTOR" instead of sqlda).
