I am having trouble identifying the type of a datetime DataColumn.
If I grab a DataTable from SQL 2008 a datetime DataColumn could be a datetime or datetime2 but there appears to be no difference when in C#.
I need to validate data prior to loading into SQL…
Any ideas?
I have decided to scrap using the DataColumn properties for reading a table’s schema as it is inaccurate in a few places (Unique always = false, Length always = -1).
I ended up retrieving the schema definition from the Sql INFORMATION_SCHEMA views instead.
Anyone know why these properties are useless in reading a DataTable’s schema? They simply don’t depict the true structure of the database table…
