Actually no MySQL datatypes are defined in Gambas at all: you don't see them, 
they are converted automatically as explained in 
http://gambasdoc.org/doc/db-type-mapping.

So, as you can deal with MySQL datatypes only inside a SQL request, and so 
with a string, I don't see the point at making constant with them, as they 
are already string constants.

Of course, if you write your code in C with the MySQL C client library, this 
is another story...
