Bill, 

Could it be that datatype 3D (datetime) should be treated as variable length? 
 

Here's my analysis of the packet, based on 
http://www.freetds.org/tds.html#responses:

Return Status:
79  00 00 00 00 
    (zero)


Output Parameter 1:
ac  1100  05  4000 6c00 6100 7300 7400  01 3d 00 00 00  3d  00 
              (5-char name)             (5 bytes unk.)      ^^ length?


Output Parameter 2:
ac  1100  05  4000 7000 7200 6500 7600  01 3d 00 00 00  3d  00 
              (5-char name)             (5 bytes unk.)      ^^ length?

Process Done:
fe  0000  e000  01000000
(no more results, row count not valid)

I imagine the "unknown" bytes are collation data.
