Yes VARCHAR, CHAR, INT, datetime, money etc. are all OK. Couldn't be
bothered with returning the value etc. It's a const reference because
all I'm doing is printing it and nothing more (yet!). Like I said in the
first I am just trying to get some reasonable info on all data types to
ensure I can get what Query Analyzer does.

What is is_blob_type() meant to do? How do you print unique identifiers
in your code? Is there any documentation on the FreeTDS API that I've
missed (havn't got any - just having to read through tds.h and
guessing!)?

Cheers again.

Jim
