So I know this has to have been asked before, but I just wanted a refresher. Does anyone think they will be needing or working on supporting these data types [date], [datetime2], [datetimeoffset], and [time] using DBLIB? Right now they come back to me as SYBTEXT and I was considering coping with them at that level in my own way for the time being, which seems OK. I think I can parse out what I need from the string.

Quick question on that. In my codes case for SYBTEXT, I'd like to find the columns datatype as a string. Is there a way in DBLIB to get that?
