From VFP9 help:
"To store values that are both dates and times or only dates, use the DateTime data type. A DateTime value is stored in eight bytes — two four-byte integers."
Not different from other languages do. Rest is checking the values using an hexeditor. Storing in 8 bytes are not done the same way everywhere AFAIK. There are information about it on many places. For example if you use filer to get file times, last 4 bytes store the time as a fraction of the day (and since fractions are not exact numerics problems start).
