Default Setting field size and type

How Do you set the field type and size? Example: I need to set the size to
9 characters and type to numeric.

Default Setting field size and type

It sounds like you're asking a question suited for Microsoft Access
(database). However, if you truly do want this for a spreadsheet, then add
Data Validation to the cell(s), specifying "Whole number" for the allowed
type, and 999999999 for the maximum.
