Hi,
I am reading data from a unix odbc datasource in a c# program. Reading the
data as works fine, but one field, contains a date-time format that .net
does not understand.
The query would be: "Select birthdate from <tabel> where bla bla"
We use an odbc command object, and an odbcdatareader.
When I simple execute string result=(string)reader[0]; The .net code tries
to resolve it as a datetime. An error results.
When I try to read the data as bytearray (byte[]) I get the same error.
How can I prevent .net trying to render the data so I can parse it myself?
Greetings,
Roland
