>>Finally, one of my greatest disappointments is that FoxPro's datetime datatype does not include fractional seconds the way SQL Server does. Instead FoxPro just supports whole number seconds without a fractional part. Yet, the FoxPro datetime datatype is 8 bytes, which is more than enough to store fractional seconds. Heck, this new MSSQL Datetime2 is 8 bytes or less. I actually discussed this with Calvin H. and he said that it could be easily done. I put in an ER, but they never did anything about it. I suspect it would have required a new datatype with a name of its own. Remember that FoxPro dates are stored on disk as simple text, but datetime is binary data on disk. And an extended FoxPro datetime would be binary as well. Again, it would all fit easily into 8 bytes.

>That is not exactly correct. Foxpro's datetime datatype too does include fractional seconds and it does not just supports the whole numbers. Those fractions cause trouble, as they also do with MS SQL server's 3 ms sensitivity.

How do you see or access these fractional seconds in the FoxPro datetime datatype? I just don't see it.
