(You mean TDS version, not FreeTDS version.)  Use TDS version 8.0.  Thanks
for pointing out that the documentation needs to be updated.  

One of these days, I will renumber the TDS versions.  Microsoft, to the 
extent they acknowledge TDS versions at all, use 7.0, 7.1, and 7.2 to indicate
protocol versions since SQL Server 7.0.  Synchronizing with that nomenclature
will reduce confusion: reading both documents will be easier, and people 
will be less likely to assume there are significant changes in the protocol
since 7.0.  

HTH.
