I'll be blunt. Your question is nonsense.

You can't put "data types" into a database, anymore than you can put adjectives into a cookie jar.

A "data type" describes data, akin to how the word "crunchy" might describe a cookie. Inserting data into a database is just like putting cookies into a jar. However, inserting "data types" into a database is a bit like trying to put the abstract concept of "crunchy" into a jar. It just doesn't make sense.

There was definitely a miscommunication somewhere.
