It seems like the current version doesn't support visual foxpro DATETIME field type.

    Sorry, typo, it should read 'DATETIME' field.

    If someone has the specs for this, we might be able to implement support for it.

    http://www.e-bachmann.dk/docs/xbase.htm contains documentation for all foxpro related datatypes. Also, there is a perl implementation that supports DATETIME field. You can take a look at how they interpret the data. The perl module is call DBD-Xbase.

    However, the documentation only mentioned that DATETIME field is a 8-byte data. It didn't mention about the actual representation. I am searching more information too.
